My brother, who has been incarcerated and has sole custody of his 6-year-old daughter, is getting out on October 5th. His mother-in-law has filed for sole custody of his 4-year-old son, with whom she has had joint custody with my brother and his wife for the last 3 years. My brother's wife abandoned him and their kids since December 11th, 2009, the day he was incarcerated. He does not want his mother-in-law to have custody because he wants his kids to remain together until he can regain custody of his son. What can I do to ensure the best interest of these kids, and raise them together until their parents can get their lives straight? The court date is set for August 11th.
