      child he never knew about

      Oh yeah, keep in mind that they do not think about the adults and what kind of financial strain it puts on anyone. Only what is in the child's best interest. So if the courts do not feel that it is in the childs best interest to waive all of the child support for the past 9 years, they won't...

      child he never knew about

      There are no consequences for the mother. Not as far as I know. Except that if he decides he wants some sort of a relationship with the child then it could look bad on her in family court because she with held the information from him that he was the father and therefore did not think in her...

      child he never knew about

      If she is going through Child Support Services you may owe all the back support. When filing through Child support Services all a mother has to do is provide a last known address. So an order may have been mailed to your husband to whatever address she gave them. If he doesn't receive it in the...

      He can not sign over his parental responsibilities unless there is another parent willing to adopt or take the responsibility. However, you can get him to sign over his legal and physical custody. And then after doing that use it in court when tries to go after any kind of custody to keep him...

      stepdad wants to adopt, biodad willing to sign

      Well when there is an adoption of an Indian child I believe BIA has to get involved even if the father is too dense to realize they could, It has to do with heritage and such. The courts have to inform BIA..I think..this is something you should definately look into. And I'm not sure if the non...

      Changing my baby's last name..or hyphenating

      That is exactly what I wanted done. Her father is charged with identity theft and forgery. So it's nothing major to some people. But it is to me because he has already used her name on Loan papers. He thinks because he is on the BC he has every right to use her name as he sees fit. "I have my...

      name change question

      If you have signed the consent to adopt, what makes you think they are required to send you anything saying the adoption is final. Once you consent to the adoption you have no more rights. You do not have to be informed legally of anything. Did someone tell you you would be receiving something...

      stepdad wants to adopt, biodad willing to sign

      This adoption may be more complicated then a regular adoption because of the indian heritage. If you have the bio-fathers consent then it will probably be a breeze. But if the bio-father fights it, he could use the bureau of Indian Affairs to help him. They will even pay for his lawyer. I went...

      problem with bio mother

      I'm not sure what you can do about the bio mom visiting him except inform the school that this is not exceptable and maybe get a restraining order. But you do have every right to not want her around. Once a parent has terminated their rights to a child they no longer are a parent and you should...

      Child wants adoption

      Since you are already paying support for the child you are considered the father by the courts so therefore all you have to do is take the mother to family court and ask the judge to order your name be put on the birth certificate and at the same time change the childs name to yours. You do not...

      Stepmom wants to adobt-bio-mom unsure

      Yes, there is open adoption where you agree on the paper work to still be able to be involved in the childs life. Although even if they agree to this its hard to get anyone to comply because you did sign over your rights. If you decide not to sign over your rights then they can try to terminate...

      Step-father adoption

      California I know that in my state if a child is 12 or older they can consent to the adoption and it would carry more weight. But usually its no contact and no support for at least a year before rights can be terminated. Otherwise you need the fathers consent. There is a form he fills out that...

      Questions about terminating rights....

      Unless the state is asking for the rights to be terminated most judges won't terminate the rights of another parent unless there is a stepparent waiting to adopt. Its mostly a financial thing. They want someone else there to be able to fullfill the financial obligations of the parent being...

      Dad wants to look good

      California When you go to court the judge will not listen to any of it until after it goes to mediation. California family law requires you to go to mediation first. In mediation make sure you let the mediator know what his past with the child has been like. No lawyers can be present during...
