That depends on where the child was born. If in the USA, the father, if legally deemed, has as many rights as the state's laws provide in the child's legal state of residence. Any child born on USA soil is, by virtue of their birth, conferred the status of a citizen of the USA and as such, is subject to all Federal Laws and state laws where they reside. If the child was born in Brazil and USA citizenship has need been otherwise awarded, Brazilian law would apply as to the rights of the father.
