It probably is the case then that he can do so without the biological father signing off. You would need to get some legal advice to follow up on adoption.
ClarificationThe court will require information about the child's biological father and the mother will have to provide any information she has regarding the father's identity and whereabouts so that he can consent to the adoption. Suppressing that information, if it is available, can lead to terrible consequences for all parties concerned. The mother should consult with an attorney who specializes in adoptions.
