Additional information
leave my child with a friend. She was not approve to watch the child but i know if i took him to the grandmother that she would call her son and tell him that i was leaving and he would stop what he is doing and come find me and wont let me leave. How he become a legal father is he signed the birth cif.. That is where i messed up.. Him and his mom got the DNA ruled out. They new if the DNA was done that it would prove that he is not the father and wont have rights to the child. So on what i have told u would i be able to appeal on the decision of the judge. How long do i have to do so. Also she does have health problems. If i can appeal on the judge decision would i get custody of my child. Would i be able to win on reopening the case.

If the drinking has not occurred since the initial or last custody determination, then you may be able to establish there has been an substantial change in circumstances that affects the ability to care for the child. Once that has been established the Court will look to what is in your child's best interest to determine who should have legal custody of your son.
