What is the name of your state? Utah
My brother's ex-girlfriend currently has custody of their two children. She was recently arrested on felony charges of forgery (this is the second time) and has court for her sentencing in two days.
Their current child care and visitation arrangement (because the mother couldn't find affordable child care) has my brother's current girlfriend babysitting both kids all day every day while their mother works. My brother has them every weekend and one full week each month.
Originally, when convicted of this second felony, the mother called my brother and told him that he would get his kids if she had to go to jail. She has since contacted him and told him that he would NOT be getting his kids and that she has made other arrangements for their care.
What can/does my brother need to do to make sure that he will get custody of his children if their mother goes to jail? Would it help for him to be at her court sentencing? Can he bring it up then? Does he need to contact the Division of Child & Family Services?
Any advice on this matter would be greatly appreciated.What is the name of your state?
