A biodad is another term for a biofather - a person or creature's biological father, especially one who does not function as one in societal terms.
Nope UNTIL hes Proven to be the father (either a test or Marriage) no unless His is on the Certificate of birth if he is not there is no proof he is the father He does not have rights stakes or claims to the Child in question if you need more info Email me Ifyouknewlove@yahoo.com Im a mother of 2 That has gone through this same thing TWICE!!!
My husband had this happen to him..... The mother had sole custody, she died in a car accident. Father picked her up and now had sole custody of her. We called around to different attourneys to see if we had to do anything through the courts to get sole custody, and we were told that due to bio mother dying biodad instantly got sole custody. Now if he didn't want sole custody then a near relative could petition the court for sole custody. Hope that helps some.

Unless the kid is, like, 10 months old, the biodad has abandoned the child. If his parental rights haven't already been severed, they should be, and that should open the door to your adopting the kid. Good luck. * The biological mother will have to file a petition in the state court in the city or county where she resides to have the father's parental rights terminated before the child is eligible for adoption. In such cases the court is generally agreeable, but such cases are judged on their individual merit. In most situations the petitioner will need to show the court that reasonable attempts to locate the biological parent have been made to obtain his or her consent for the adoption. Abandonment laws in most states do not address the issue of the adoption of a child based only on the issue of one or both parents not being present.
