If the biological father has not signed the birth certificate or affidavit of parentage and has given no support towards the child would a judge be likely to agree to an adoption by the stepfather?

Not without him being contacted as there's a high rate of mothers lying about this. They are receiving cash child support payments while telling everyone they are getting nothing. Also, women are known to wait up to 18 years to file a retroactive child support award after not having informed the man that he had a child. I received on of those cases today. The judge has to confirm the claims made.

What are a father's rights after a child is born?
If the couple are unmarried the birth mother is presumed to have full custodial rights to the child.. The assumed father is not automatically granted any rights to a child until paternity is established either by the signing of the birth certificate or affidavit of parentage or a paternity test. When parentage has been established the biological father can file a writ of habeas corpus for custoday or a petition for visitation rights; likewise the primary custodial parent can then petition for child support.
How can a birth certificate help you chart a family tree?
It displays parentage.
Can a man sign the affidavit of parentage if he knows he is not the biological father and no other man claims to be the father?
Does he want to be charged with the crime of perjury? An affidavit is a written statement made under oath. Making a false statement under oath constitutes perjury. In addition, doing so would make the man liable for child support until the child is an adult. Don't be stupid. Don't do it.
How can i change child's last name If ex-husband is not the father?
This is what's called Paternity Fraud, since you didn't do it at the beginning. I assume he challenged paternity? You will need a court order for the change.
In Michigan if a child was born out of wedlock but the biological father signed an affidavit of parentage can the mother move out of state without first going through the courts?
The short answer is yes. The affidavit simply establishes a presumption of paternity. The father has no actual rights (to custody, parenting time, or support) until he files a paternity suit. If he did file a paternity suit, no DNA test will be required, and he will be found to be the father, because he is on the affidavit. Next, the court would issue an Order of Filiation. At that point, the mother would be bound by Michigan's 100 mile rule, and would not be able to more more than 100 miles from the other parent unless given permission by the court. However, in your case, all you have is an affidavit of parentage. You can move out of state without permission of the other parent or the court.
If a parents name isn't on a birth certificate how will she claim csa?

What is an affidavit of parentage?
If a child is born out of wedlock, a paternity affidavit is filled out and signed. The exact forms vary from state to state, but basically the forms list the parents' and child's information, and both parents swear they believe the man is the father of the child. The form is a legal document for purposes of naming, support, inheritance, and custody disputes.
If the unwed mother has sole custody can the father be granted temporary custody?
Possibly. He must establish the parentage with the court before he can petition for any custodial rights. This means he must prove to the court that he is the biological father. In most instances a simple acknowledgement and/or his being named on the birth certificate will suffice. However, if the birth mother denies that the male is the biological father he will need to claim parental rights via paternity testing.

No because the person who provides the information on a birth certificate is attesting to its veracity. A birth certificate is an official record.

If you are not married to your baby's father would it cost money to give the baby his last name instead of yours?
No as long as you do it on the hospital, they just make you watch a video and make sure that he understands that the baby will be his responsibility also.

In UK the father has to accompany the mother to the register the baby's birth.
