Not automatically, but the father certainly has a right to move for visitation and, ordinarily, it should be granted.

What rights does a father have if he has never paid child support and hasnt seen his child in 13 months?

Child support and visitation are separate issues and visitation rights are not dependent on paying child support. He has the right to petition the court for visitation and custody as well as the responsibility to pay child support. The courts encourage the involvement of both parents in the child's life. If the parents are not married the father may need to establish his paternity before petitioning for visitations or custody.


Will your child's father get visitation of her if you file for child support even though he has never been a part of her life and she doesn't know he is her father?

It depends on the state. I know it Tx once paternity is established that the father has the right to request visitation through the courts. The judge will take into account that they have never met. Mostly likely, If the father does not present a threat to the child he will be granted some sort of visitation. If visitation is denied by the mother she could face criminal charges. By filing child support you are establishing paternity and giving the child's father all the rights as an unwed father.


If the mother deprive the father the right to see his child and he pays child support what are will the courts do for legal relief for him?

If the father has visitation rights and the mother refuses to allow the father those rights, then the father can sue the mother in a civil contempt proceeding. If she doesn't have a good reason for disallowing the visitation then she can be held in contempt of court. There are various remedies including giving the father more visitation to make up for the visitation that was disallowed by the mother or even giving the father custody, but usually, the judge will just order the mother to allow the visits. His paying or not paying child support has nothing to do with whether or not he gets visitation (i.e. he gets visitation regardless of whether or not he is current with child support).

Can my kids father sign over all rights to me even if I don't agree or refuse to let him?

That would need to be approved by a court and would not relieve him of his obligation to pay child support. Courts make such decisions and even if you have sole legal and physical custody and the father relinquishes visitation rights, he must obey any child support order.That would need to be approved by a court and would not relieve him of his obligation to pay child support.

It's all up to the courts to decide. A mother can request full sole legal custody of the child even if the father has visitation rights and pays child support. The mother does need to prove to the courts why full sole legal custody is in the child's best interest.
