Do I have any custody rights to my child in minnesota if I was not married and am on the birth certificate and the child has my last name?
Yes, you do have certain rights. You must contact either the court or your state Department of Children and Family Services to claim and assert your parental right. Do NOT simply go to the front door of the child's home and try to force your way into the child's life (or his mothers, for that matter).
What else can I help you with?
Can you live with your dad who lives in a different state but not on your birth certificet?
Your guardian decides where you live until you are 18yo. Atm I'm guessing that is your mother. If your father wants custody of you he would have to petition the court for your custody unless your mother gives her consent. They then have to go to court and modify the custody agreement. The birth certificate is irrelevant but if you father have not been to court to prove paternity by a DNA test he does not have parental rights. He would need to do that first. Custody, visitation and child support are parental rights.
