Asked on Nov 04th, 2016 on Child Custody - California
More details to this question:
I'm in California and my son's dad is currently locked up in prison for child trafficking of a 14 year old girl. It was all over the news. And he was found with drugs. He will now be registered as a sex offender for life once released. I don't want him to get out and have my son around that lifestyle so I want to gain full custody of my son while he is locked up and if he wants to see him it be supervised. Is it possible to get legal full custody of my son while he is locked up?

Yes. You can seek full legal and physical custody. You would have to serve the father the court documents in the prison. There is a process to accomplish service through the prison system.
