My sister lives in Missouri and has a 5 year old son from an old boyfriend that she lived with her 4 years ago and is now living in Oaklahoma. The father had to be removed from the home by the police, and was arrested on varous charges and has spent the last 4 years in and out of rehab for alcohol abuse. Latley he has been calling the mother and telling here he is coming for his son and threatening to take her to court and leaving several threatening cell phone messages. The mother does not want anything from him not even child support. She definately does not want him near the child.
1. What should be the next legal step to secure sole custody?
2. Should she get a restraining order?
3. Does he have any legal rights to custody? ( his name is on the birth certificate.
Thanks for your help.
