Re: Child Custody

I really do not think it is possible. The other parent must still have rights and he or she would have to be named as a necessary party in the court proceedings.

Now they could always choose to do nothing and allow the transfer of custody to go through.

It sounds like there are a lot of facts and issues to your question. Feel free to contact me for a free consultation. I would love to help.

Have a great day.
