My question involves paternity law for the State of: Illinois
I signed paternity acknowledgment when I was 18 yrs old now I'm 31.
I( moved to Chicago 2 years ago)
I had a child with my ex girlfriend once she told me she was pregnant she hid from me I tried going over and she never wanted to see me. she moved out on her own per her parents and I got a call from her mom telling me the baby was born I immediately when to the hospital she wouldn't tell me where she lived so I kept in contact with her mom. to make a long story short
1.after all this time she will not put my name on "my daughters" birth certificate
2.I told her we'll go back to child support court so they can reevaluate our case (it will benefit her to get more money) and she refused.
3. I looked her up on myspace and she said If I want anything for me to do it
but she lived in the state of TX and the non-custodial parent has no rights just pay child support. I called the state of TX too many times and I get the same answer "only the custodial parent can add your name to the birth certificate"
4. when I first moved up to chicago she did let my daughter come with to visit for a month and my daughter told my niece by marriage "I came up here to get what I can from him"
PLEASE SOMEONE HELP![]()
