Custody

Physical custody means you take physical care of and supervise your child.¹ A judge can give:

1. sole physical custody, also called primary physical custody, to one parent; or 
2. joint physical custody to both parents.²  

To learn when a judge will give each type of physical custody, see When will the judge give primary physical custody to one parent? and When will the judge give joint physical custody?
