Answer
No. Only a court can grant custody rights or guardianship rights. The inmate cannot assign his parental rights to his own mother.
I think it depends on how long the mother will be incarcerated for. There might be a hearing giving the father temporary custody. But if the father ever tries to get full physical custody of the child in the future, it might not be good for the mother. However, she can never be refused visitation.
If you are the father, the minute that the mother went to jail, you should have gotten custody of your children. If the mother (assuming she is the custodial parent) is incarcerated, then the non-custodial parent should file for an emergency hearing and get custody of the children. State lines are not as important as the welfare of the children.
This would be decided in court. Other family members (grandparents, aunt & uncles, etc.) could also petition for custody.
the father gets the custody of the child if the mother dies
No, but the father can get the custody if he proves that the mother has bad habits like alcoholic or consume drugs.
Can a father in wi. get temporary full custody if mother is homeless?
It depends on the state the father lives in, the custody laws of that state would determine if he had a real, legal reason for taking the children for her. Another condition would be WHY she was incarcerated. He would need to see a family lawyer who practices family law in his state.
How often is the father awarded custody of the child over the mother in North Carolina?
No, unless the baby's biological father relenquishes his parental rights, he would get custody of the child if the mother dies, not her husband. The biological father must sign his rights away to the mother's husband.
No, although most courts favor custody to the mother.

Either parent can have physical custody in a joint custody arrangement. If there is a court order granting the mother physical custody the father should notify the court of the mother's incarceration and have that order modified unless he wants the mother to resume physical custody when she is released.
