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.
