QUESTION

Can my ex's fiance's child custody issues affect our case?

Asked on Aug 15th, 2015 on Child Custody - Illinois
More details to this question:
My ex and I were never married and have been separated for 5 years. She is engaged to a man who has his own custody case going on where he has had supervised visitation with his son, order of protections, and has had 2 DUI's in the past 6 months. My daughter, 11 years old, currently lives with them. They also live in a pretty bad neighborhood in Chicago, I live with my wife and son from my current marriage, in a very nice suburb in the Chicago area. Shouldn't I be able to get residential custody at this point?

You have said nothing about what your daughter wants. The situation about her mother's boyfriend may provide a basis for you seeking a change in custody, but it depends on why he is getting supervised visitation. You should check out his file and find out why.
