neither parent can.
If a father finds out he is the biological father of a child, he has as many rights to the child as the mother does. He can take the mother to court for custody or to set up a parenting plan.
The mother. The father have to prove paternity in court and petition for visitation or custody. He can then also pay child support.
It is assumed that the parents are unmarried and it is doubtful that neither parent has custody. In most jurisdictions in the United States an unmarried mother has legal custody of her child. Generally, the father must establish his paternity in family court and once established he can request custody and a visitation schedule. The court will also issue a child support order. The court will not terminate the mother's custody unless it deems her to be an unfit parent. Once paternity has been established neither parent can remove the child from the state without the consent of the other parent and the court. You should consult with an attorney who specializes in custody issues in your area who can review your situation and explain your rights and options under the law.
yes
You have full custody and legal guardianship. The father have to go to court to get his parental rights and petition for custody, visitation and pay child support.
Without a Will, he has no clearly defined custodial rights to a stepchild, but unless addressed in a custody decree, neither does the father. Guardianship reverts to the maternal grandparents.
If you have Joint Legal Custody, then neither parent can physically change residences without the approval of the other. If, per the question, the daughter is living with the father, or the father has "primary" custody, then you can move wherever "you" want, at least in my perception.
First, without a court order, the mother cannot prohibit the father from seeing the child. If he has not voluntarily given up his rights to the child, and a judge has not created a custody schedule, the father has as much right to see the child as the mother.Second, if the father does voluntarily give up his parenting rights, or a judge does involuntarily remove his parenting rights (or awards full custody to the mother), the father would still owe child support until his child reaches the age of majority and has graduated high school.
If the parents share custody there must be a custody order and visitation order. Those orders must be followed. Neither party has the right to make changes without a new court order.
