If the father is on the birth certificate that is evidence of paternity in many locations and confers all intrinsic paternal rights and obligations accorded with state law, unless a modification by court order has been entered.
You would need to supply your location and the legal residential location of the child (state or country if outside of the USA) for an accurate answer.

No. By signing the certificate he says he is the father of the child. If he then wants visitation rights or custody he have to petition in court after he has established paternity by a DNA test. He can then also pay child support.
Yes, a father can still have rights even if his name is not on the birth certificate. Paternity can be established through other means such as DNA testing or a court order, which can grant the father legal rights and responsibilities towards the child.
the bio-father still has more rights as obvisouly he is the true father
If he's not married to the mother, none even if it was. see links
As long as you have a test proving paternity, you have full rights. My daughters father is not on her birth certificate, but has a paternity test. He can have visitation and such as we decide fit. ---- But, only after a court order is established. With the exception of Arizona, under all possible circumstances, including long term cohabitation, a single father has no assumed rights to the child without a court order.
Yes, as long as the father has not established his paternity legally. Once he has established his paternity in court he has parental rights and he must consent to any guardianship or the court will schedule a hearing whereby he can explain his objections.Yes, as long as the father has not established his paternity legally.

Yes, if he can establish his paternity legally through a DNA test. Once his paternity is established he can petition for visitation or custody and if the mother retains custody she can request a child support order. A father's parental rights do not depend on the name of the child only on the biological relationship.
If the couple are unmarried the birth mother is presumed to have full custodial rights to the child.. The assumed father is not automatically granted any rights to a child until paternity is established either by the signing of the birth certificate or affidavit of parentage or a paternity test. When parentage has been established the biological father can file a writ of habeas corpus for custoday or a petition for visitation rights; likewise the primary custodial parent can then petition for child support.
You don't say which of the parents that are incarcerated but their rights to the child comes first. If the father is not in the birth certificate and he has not established paternity to the court so he can petition for visitation or custody and also pay child support, there is nothing that legally says he is the father. Then the maternal grandmother would have a better chance. If the father is not in the birth certificate but he has established paternity to the court so he can petition for visitation or custody and also pay child support, the chance should be equal.
The father of the baby would have to sign his rights over as a parent as long as paternity has been established. If the father has not signed or been named on the birth certificate and can prove paternity (through DNA testing) or other means he has a legal right to his child.
