If my child’s father puts in writing he would never ask for custody of our daughter, would that weight in if later he changed his mind for court?
Would it have any weight? Yes. Would it, on its own, have weight sufficient to bar him from seeking sole or joint custody of the child in the future? No. Just because a parent may, at one point in time, state that he/she does not now want and would not want/seek sole or joint custody of the child in the future does not and cannot bar that parent from changing his/her mind in the future.
