He would have all of the rights that a biological father has. If he was not the biological father, then his name should not have been put on the birth certificate in the first place, unless he adopted her and the birth certificate was changed.
Oh yeah. The biological father and mother are put on the certificate.
What exactly are you asking? If the mother is married the husband is automatically the father legally unless the biological father sign the birth certificate or prove paternity in court.
If you are adopted, your biological father has no legal standing. And there is no requirement that any parent sign a wedding certificate. If you are underage, you may need signatures to obtain the marriage license and it would be the adoptive parent that would have to sign.
Then unless the biological father is ok with this and signs his rights over, the new husband has no legal rights to the child.
The birth certificate can only have one father and only the biological father is allowed to be on it. And only he can sign it. A step parent have no legal right to the child.
Except in an adoption, there is no such person as a "non biological father." The only man who should be signing a birth certificate is the child's biological father. Any other man who signs it is making an illegal statement.
This is really confusing, can you reword it. If the biological father is giving up his rights, he's the only one who will be positive as a father for the said child in a paternity test. A new birth certificate, isn't the real birth certificate. Even if its a legal one, the child deserves to know who his / her biological parent is, even if he's chosen not to be in the child's life. In a step parent adoption, an amended birth certificate is issued. In all adoptions the original birth certificate is sealed and an amended birth certificate is issued with the new legal parents names.
No, unless the baby's biological father relenquishes his parental rights, he would get custody of the child if the mother dies, not her husband. The biological father must sign his rights away to the mother's husband.
Unlikely. Your husband is the legal father of the child.
Yes, but he will have to file a petition for visitation. He may also have to go through paternity testing to verify.
The biological father. He does not have to be on the bc to do so. In court he will prove paternity with a DNA test.
