Can a father claim the custody of daughter when the mother marries unfit person?

My wife and I got divorced 3 months ago, she has custody of our 6-month old daughter.

She wants to remarry but I disagree with the person she wants to remarry as he has a history of violence and abuse.

Can I have the custody agreement revoked?

Hello,

Thank you for your question.

Generally, you can try to challenge the current custody arrangement. However, the acceptance is under the judge’s discretion. The custody arrangement may change if the situation changes since the terms of the arrangement were made.

The decision of custody is on the basis of the best interest of the child. For example, a judge may grant custody to the father if the mother is found unfit.

Based on your representation of your ex-wife's new husband, the judge may find that it is not in your daughter's best interest to live in that environment.

Should you require further tailored substantive legal advice or assistance with your matter, kindly contact my firm at our email.

Regards,

Ludmila
