​Shared Custody

Shared custody is when each parent has custody of the child or children for an equal amount of time. Sometimes there is no domiciliary parent names.


​Split Custody

Split custody is when each parent has sole custody of at least one child.


​Custody to Non-Parent

Custody is awarded to a non-parent when it has been deemed that giving custody to either parent would cause substantial harm to the child or children.
