Can a person who has no blood relation to a child still be allowed to keep that child?

Did this person gain custody based on being a blood relative? If so, you need to contact an attorney ASAP. Gather all documents, letters, you have. Right down times and places for any pertinent event you can remember. Record any conversations you have the opportunity to do. Not illegal if one party to the call (you) knows it’s being recorded. Good luck!

You need a lawyer's advice, how would we know all the problems?

Who is a registered sex offender? Your father? In that case it's going to be very extremely difficult for him to get custody of any child. His request or if he's involved with someone who requests custody of a child is going to be automatically and quickly denied. And since the child was removed from you by the state (which says there's something else that might be involved there you didn't say anything about) you're most likely not going to be able to get any kind of custody approved for him either. You biological sisters can give it a try but, again, with a registered sex offender being in the picture it's going to be difficult for them too.

I think you're out of luck but you never know. There aren't usually attorneys here on yahoo answers surfing around answering questions and that is the only kind of person who's going to be able to give you an accurate answer. You will have to find a way to contact a lawyer. Most states have 'pro bono' (free) attorney services for people that can't afford them.

There is a chance that even if this "he" the sex offender is your father they may not consider that but I doubt it. The biggest obstacle other than that is going to be that the state removed him from your care.

You're not going to get an accurate answer on this here on yahoo. Quara usually provides better quality advice but again you can't guarantee the person that answers you there is the type of professional person you need to talk to to find out how you can go about this and IF there's a chance of someone that allows you to see him getting custody, a lawyer.

Rant much? Sounds like you have not researched anything... such as the definition of who a "relative" is in the DE code. Betcha every conceivable person is not required to take a dna test to determine if they are a "blood relative." Think about it, or not. Your choice.

I(t happens all the time. It is called Foster Parenting.

It is all subject to Due Process. and is very hard to fight.

Yes, a person who is not a blood relative can be given temporary or permanent custody of a child. This is most common when no blood relative can meet the State’s criteria and the only other option is foster care with the child being moved from home to home. Whether or not this person is your blood relative is immaterial.

Guardianship goes through the Courts. A person on the sex offender registry is not going to get permission to be the guardian. It’s that simple. I don’t understand that this person now wants to get custody - doesn’t she already have custody? Or is this a different aunt?

A bigger question is WHY you lost custody. Another question is WHERE is the birth father? Is he the bf who is in Federal Prison?

The Guardianship Order may have permitted the guardian to move. It may not allow the guardian to move. Visitation should be covered by that Guardianship Agreement. What does the Agreement say? The person who is the Guardian is entitled by law to protect the child. If she feels that visitation with your younger sisters would not be beneficial to the child, yes, she can deny the visits.

The Court is going to want to know who supports the child, how much money you send weekly/monthly. Gifts do NOT count. Money for expenses is all that counts.

Want custody of your child? Go BACK to Court and prove the situation has changed, prove you are able to care for your child (physically, emotionally, financially) and get custody back.

You may just have to hunt her down to start another case and let the law know that she’s not actually related and got custody off false pretenses.
