IF YOU CAN PROVE YOUR THE BIOLOGICAL FATHER YES YOU DO HAVE RIGHTS... SEE AND ATTORNEY AND GET A PATERNITY TEST..... * Maybe. The biological father can file a custody petition after he establishes parentage. The problem is, that a child born in a marriage when the husband takes responsibility by signing the birth certificate legally becomes that man's child. If the husband objected to DNA testing to establish parentage the court WOULD NOT allow a paternity test. If the biological father had knowledge of the pregnancy and did nothing to intervene when the child was born, in all likelihood the court will rule that he voluntarily relinquished his parental rights and now has no legal rights to the child in question.
no, changing the birth certificate requires adoption, and can only be done if the birth father's parental rights have been terminated.
the bio-father still has more rights as obvisouly he is the true father
Get a lawyer. You have a couple of ways to assert your parental rights.
If the father wants custody rights, this would be usable in court.
If you're in the US, he has the same rights as any other father, because he is the legal father (biological is irrelevant at this point).

Single fathers have no rights in any state see link below
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.
no, changing the birth certificate requires adoption, and can only be done if the birth father's parental rights have been terminated.
If the father signs the birth certificate, he legally acknowledges paternity of the child. This means he may have rights and responsibilities, such as custody, visitation, and child support.
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.
Yes - the man signing the birth certificate is the child's legal father unless/until established otherwise in court.
A father has parental rights regardless of marital status most states.
the bio-father still has more rights as obvisouly he is the true father
If it's established who the biological father is, regardless what name is on the birth certificate, he will have to give up his parental rights in order for someone else to adopt the child. He can also go to court and have the name on the birth certificate changed to his.
The same if he is listed on the birth certificate. NONE
No, you cannot sign a birth certificate if you are not the biological father.
