It depends on the circumstances but you have to go through court to do it.

A birth certificate is a legal record. Generally, an amendment to a birth record requires a court order. Each state has its own rules. There are only certain reasons a father's name can be removed from a birth certificate. The most often permitted reason requires proof the man is not the biological father. You must petition the court and the judge will render a decision after a careful review of the reason. The court order can be used to get the official record modified.
