Of course not. The father must be named in the petition to establish paternity so the court will know who to notify. An order for DNA testing and subsequent child support order cannot be issued against an unnamed person.

No matter what she named the child the father is responsible for child support.


If a child does not have the fathers last name does the father still pay child support?

Yes. The child does not need to be named after the father for him to be obliged to pay child support. He needs to be the biological father, that's all. Child support obligations arise from being the biological parent of a child and not on the child's name.

How do you stay a ny family court order of support?

The man who has been named as the father and ordered to pay support would need to file a countersuit claiming he is not the biological father of the child/children. Documentation would be required to prove such a claim and/or proof of claims of any other reason he is not obligated to pay support for the child/children named in the court order.


Can a judge make you pay child support if the child is not legitimized in the state of Georgia?

They certainly can. The judge is the 500 lb elephant in the room. He or she can make any ruling they so desire as long as it is not in violation of state law and the laws of Georgia state that the named father has an obligation to support their child whether the child is legitimized or not, unless the father can prove via a court ordered paternity test that he is not the father. Legitimization of the child is to protect the father's right to visitation and custody and has absolutely nothing to do with support obligations.

Can a child of unmarried parents challenge a will in Texas?

They could challenge a will but there is no guarantee of success. Inheritance from a father who was not married to the mother requires proof of the biological relationship by virtue of one of the following:The father consents in writing to be named as the child's father on the child's birth certificatePaternity is established in a paternity suit brought generally before the child's twentieth birthday.The father legally adopts the child.The father voluntarily signs a written notarized statement of paternity acknowledging that the child is his.After the child's birth, the father marries the biological mother and either signs a written acknowledgment of paternity, consents to be named and is named as the child's father on the birth certificate, or is obligated under a written voluntary promise or by court order to support the child.After the father's death, the probate court determines that the father was the child's biological father.This means that even if a father maintains ties with his out of wedlock child, that child will not inherit from him if he dies without a will, except under limited circumstances such as those discussed above.


Can i put a man that is not biologically my child's father on her birth certificate if he voluntarilly signs paternitythere is no name father named on her birth cert bio father ordered to pay support?

Too many people involved. Leave the birth certificate as it is. Let the biological father continue to pay child support. If the current man marries you and wishes to adopt the child, then that is another matter. Seek legal advice before doing anything to change the birth certificate. No. This would be fraud unless the child is adopted by your boyfriend.
