Grand Forks, ND asked in Child Custody and Child Support for North Dakota

Q: Does a father have as much custody as the mom without going to court yet? In ND.

The mother wont let the father see his daughter. The mother moved to a different town farther from him and she is denying him his rights to see her. No court order has been made yet but she hasnt talked to him since July and she ignores every message she sends him. She also has him blocked on social media so he cant even see pictures of her without asking friends of hers to send him some. She didnt even tell him that she had moved he has no idea where they are.

A: Without a court order, neither has many rights (if any) at all. Time to file a custody proceeding.
