A father is responsible for supporting his child whether or not he is in the child's life.
If the court has awarded child support, then the good intentions of the father are irrelevant. Legally, child support must be paid.
A judge can order child support from the father if a court-ordered DNA test proves that he is the child's father.
A father cannot petition for emancipation, the child has to. And it doesn't relieve him of paying back support payments.
Your husband can only adopt if the girls father willingly gives up his parental rights or the court terminates them. As her dad he will pay child support until the adoption is through. Then your husband have that responsibility and parental rights just like you. So see what your ex wants. The court stops child support etc when the adoption is through.
Yes. see linksAns 2.The father has the option to waive his rights if he wants to, and if he can convince the judge that he is sane, sober and not under coercion as he does so.This has nothing at all to do with child support, which is not his right, but his responsibility. In general the mother can't waive child support either, because support is her child's right, not hers.THAT IS CORRECT.....unless the child's mother has re-married and her husband wants to adopt this child, that would release the biological father from paying child support.
If you are their legal guardian, you can collect child support from both parents of the child. If you are not their legal guardian and they just live with you, you do not have rights to child support.
He is the father and not to allow him his child would hurt the child. Take him to family court for the support.
No. Support and visitation are separate issues.
So what relationship are you to the parent or the child? If you were married when the child was born, you are assumed to be the father. Unless someone else is listed on the birth certificate, you're going to be expected to support the child.
After the baby is born the father can go to court and request a paternity test. If the test confirms the father's paternity he can request custody and a visitation order and the court will establish a child support order. The mother cannot refuse to obey the court orders that establish the father's rights. If she does, she could eventually lose custody.
only if the child is then adopted
Not for continuing support, only for arrears.
