The court will decide. Giving up your rights does not fulfill your obligations to support the child. Someone has to support the child, and you are the mother.

No. He can sign over his rights but he would still be liable to pay child support. The only time he doesn't have to pay child support is if a stepdad wanted to adopt the child, then the biological father doesn't have to pay child support if he signs his rights away.

What happens in the state of California if a father signs over his rights?
Terminating parental rights does not mean you are no longer obligated to support the child so you still have to pay child support. Unless the child is adopted. You will have no rights to the child at all if you have your rights terminated and the court will not give them back so be sure what you are doing.

If the judge signs the order terminating parental rights, no. However, very frequently judges will not find that termination of parental rights is in the best interest of the child, even if the parent wants to, especially if it is being done as a way of avoiding responsibility.
If a mom signs over her rights due to defiant behaviors from the minor child is she obligated to pay child ssupport?
by "signing over rights" I persume you mean, terminating her parental rights and no, she is not obligated to pay child support, however, any accumulated back child support, or "arrears" is required to be paid, unless agreed otherwise. For this you would have had a prior order to pay support prior to the terminating of the mother's rights. When your rights to a child is terminated it is as if the child was never yours and your rights to the child, and obligation for the child are forever terminated.

Will child support stop if father signs rights over to mother and mother does not want child support from him anymore?
None of them can sign over anything. They can go to court and ask to have their rights removed and the custodial parent can ask to have the child support stopped but this means she can not get benefits before he has paid.
If a father doesnt want to pay child support and signs over his rights can he still get visitation?
Just because a father signs over his rights, does not mean he won't be obligated to pay child support. This will depend on what kind of agreement everyone comes to in regards to your case in California.
