Yes, that's what I am referring to the court order...where does that proceeding begin...via a paternity action...not adoption.
I went to the registrar's office in person (the county of which I was born) and they gave me the form to change the father, said I could change it, even as an adult. Even though this was not to establish any child support etc... However, you say it's the court...that won't hear a paternity action... it must be based on what than?
Again, Which state do the proceedings begin,...that's one of my questions...I present the documents in my state or in the state I was born? When I was at the Registrar's office they said thought it should begin in the state I live in, but they were not sure.
Is the court order referring to a Petition to Establish a Parental Relationship...is this the same as the court order? I can locate this type of petition in CA but not in VA.
I disagree, with the adoption route. I have adopted children, and I understand what you are saying but, this is entirely different route of action. Our children were adopted from out of state via an ICPC, and I am familiar with those proceedings x 4 times....and the complexities of different fathers etc...one with no father listed on birth certificate etc...
