"Custody" is generally defined by physical placement and decision-making authority. There are several types of custody commonly established. The two most common forms
of custody are 'Sole' custody, where one parent has most or all of the decision-making
authority and time with the children, and 'Joint' or 'Shared' custody where parental responsibilities and parenting time
are shared.
There are other custody designations that vary the factors of physical placement and
decision-making authority. See this page for more detailed information on custody designations:
