You are considered the legal descendant, for purposes of inheritance, of the parent who is listed on your birth certificate. However, someone supplied false information at the time of the recording of the birth and that issue may come up in the future. A court order could change the situation but until that time the birth certificate would control.

Can father on birth certificate not bi logical father be responsible financially?

Anybody who wants to can be responsible financially.If they don't want to, the fact that they're listed on the birth certificate is essentially meaningless. In many places, the mother can list whoever she wants as the father on the birth certificate; she's not required to actually prove it. Courts do not necessarily assume that it's correct, and particularly if the person listed can prove he's not the biological father, it would be a travesty of justice if they forced him to pay child support anyway.No, no, no. A man's name can be on the birth certificate only if he signs an acknowledgment of paternity. This makes him the child's father until/unless a court rules otherwise.

Only the biological father can sign his name, if that is what you mean. If the child is adopted the adoptive father can change it and sign his. If the mother sign his name or another man's name, it is fraud. The mother must always be listed on the birth certificate.
