No not in Wisconsin. In all states any person that the court defines as an "interested party" and in this case the mother would qualify as such, said person has the legal right to oppose the action in question. The final decision is left in a situation such as this, to the presiding judge. The voluntary relinquishment of paternal rights is generally granted so the child(ren) can be eligible for adoption. In cases not connected with adoption the judge rules on what is in the best interest of the child(ren) not the preference of other parties.

As all it does is give up that parents right, it a way for one parent to do so while the spouse of the other parent adopts the child. It must be unconditional, in other words the parent can not set condition on relinquishing their right once done they have not further standing in court or law in the matter.

If the mother is not in agreement it would need to be approved by a court order. Remember that the courts do not appoint a legal guardian while either parent has legal custody.

Can an illegal immigrant mother receive child support if she leaves country and father gives up all rights?
If the father Legally gave up his parental rights - (signed legal papers), then he is no longer legally responsible to pay child support for the child. Did he give up parental rights so you could remove the child from the country? A family member of mine had to have her baby's father sign away his parental rights so he would not have to pay child support when he entered the military. So - once parental rights are signed away Legally, the father has NO obligation to pay child support. You cannot have it both ways - you cannot have him sign away his parental rights, yet still expect him to pay child support.
