Divorce
In the state of California, a judge will evaluate a custody-case based on what he or she believes is in the best interests of the child or children. There are two guiding policies which California law specifies:
The safety, health and the good fare of a child must be a court's primary concern
Children benefit the most from having frequent and continual contact with both parents
