To obtain a court order to add a father's name to a birth certificate in North Carolina, you typically need to file a petition for legitimation in the appropriate district court. This process usually involves providing proof of paternity, such as a DNA test or a signed acknowledgment of paternity by both parents. After filing, a hearing will be scheduled where you must present your case, and if the court grants the petition, you can then request the updated birth certificate from the Vital Records office. It may be beneficial to consult with a family law attorney for guidance throughout the process.
