More details to this question:
My son is in a custody battle with his ex, he has raised his son for 3 and a half years. He had to represent himself. He had a lot tof email, text, and Skype proof they wouldn't let him use. Her attorney and his son's appointed attorney both recommended she have him. They are all friends on Facebook. Is it a good or bad sign the judge is going to mail his decision?

If a judge is going to mail a decision, that could be standard practice for that court, or it could indicate a longer opinion that the judge wants time to draft (in ancipation that someone might want to appeal to a higher court). Your son should hire a lawyer. Good luck.
