My question involves a child custody case from the State of: FL
Could someone help me understand how/if this statute applies? FL 742.031 (2) states
If the state on behalf of one parent receiving public assistance petitions the court to establish a support order only[there was no need for a court adjudication of paternity since previously established by paternity acknowledgements], does the judgement/order of support imposed on one parent constitute an implied award of custody when there was technically no judgement of Paternity to accompany it?(2) If a judgment of paternity contains only a child support award with no parenting plan or time-sharing schedule, the obligee parent shall receive all of the time-sharing and sole parental responsibility without prejudice to the obligor parent. If a paternity judgment contains no such provisions, the mother shall be presumed to have all of the time-sharing and sole parental responsibility.
