I am just starting the divorce process and am dating a man accused of domestic violence against his estranged wife (she is a real nut case! ) I have a 13 year old daughter who adores this man. Can my soon to be ex-husband use my boyfriends past to prevent me from obtaining custody of our daughter?

He certainly can mention it, and probably will. I don't know if that's enough to prevent you from getting custody.

Depends on how recent the violence was and of what nature. At a minimum he may be able to gain a restraining order against this man to keep him away from his daughter. And when you violate it he will get full custody.
