All states issue birth certificates. Usually it is the medical facilities where the child is actually born that issue the 'certificates of live birth.' The parent(s) must then take this 'certificate of live birth' to the city or county office which issues the official birth certificates. Present the certificate of live birth, and the government office will issue a birth certificate based on the hospital's certification. (confused enough?)

------------------

With all due respect, medical facilities almost invariably issue birth certificates and it is they, not the parents, who interface with the agency that officially records births, deaths, marriages, etc. and it is the State that issues certified documents to parents, schools, etc. including Certificates of Live Birth (COLB). A COLB can not be generated until the data from the original Birth Certificate is transcribed into a database in a computer and it is from that information that the COLB is generated, printed and certified.

It is my understanding that virtually all states will provide certified photocopies of the original birth certificate upon request and the payment of a fee. I know of none that will not.

If the father is not on the birth certificate does he have parental rights in Texas?

No. An unmarried father has no right to keep the child from her mother unless there is a court order to that effect. He has no personal legal authority to keep the child. In the absence of any order, if he takes the child and fails to return the child to the mother she should call the police.Generally, if the parents are unmarried the mother has sole custody and control in most states until the father can establish his paternity. Remember, a child's mother can always be identified by medical records. Since the father didn't give birth and he was not legally married at the time of the birth he must establish his paternity by signing the birth certificate at the time of birth (waiving DNA testing rights) which must be done with mother's consent.If he doesn't sign the birth certificate then he must seek another way to establish his paternity and that is done through a DNA test. A paternity test can be arranged through the court. Once paternity is established in court, the father can request visitations or custody through the court. If the mother retains physical custody she can request that the court issue a child support order. If the father gets physical custody he can request a child support order.


Do you need to get full custody if no paternity is established and you have no child support and have not had any contact for almost a year with him?

As long as you have not named this young man on the birth certificate of your child, then you have every right to continue to look after your daughter as a single parent. If you have named this young man on the birth certificate and he has decided to fight you for this child (or hasn't said a word yet) it is best you get sole custody and be sure the courts realize he has been an unsupportive father and has not paid child support. If he has been paying child support and neither of you have custody this could be a problem and he may fight you in court for his rights. After establishing paternity a biological father can petition the court for custodial or visitation privileges regardless if he has been placed on the birth certificate. The child support issue will only be addressed after such action has been implemented or if the birth mother files for support or public assistance.

How do you have the name of the man who knows he is not the biological father removed from your child's birth certificate?

You will need to contact the local or main state office of vital records in the state in where the child was born, to obtain information on the required procedure. Some states will amend or issue a birth certificate only when paternity has been established or excluded in a court proceeding. Other states will require 'sufficient legal acknowledgement' as defined by state law for the birth certificate to be amended or a new one issued.

What is the difference between baptismal certificate and birth certificate?

Many hospitals issue a 'Certificate of Live Birth' or something similar to parents; it has no legal standing. The 'Birth Certificate' is issued by the appropriate legal authority (e.g. registrar or court house) when the birth is officially registered. It is the birth certificate that establishes and records the child's name and identifies the parents. It is normally regarded as a means of identification whereas a hospital certificate would not be accepted for this purpose.
