Child Custody Dispute Resolution

Summary

In Illinois, if no custody agreement exists, both parents have equal rights to the child. Taking the child out of state without the other parents consent could be considered parental kidnapping. The mother can call the police and seek an emergency custody order to prevent the father from leaving with the child. If the father takes the child to another state, the police may not have the authority to intervene without a custody order. The mother should file for an emergency custody order to address the situation legally.
