My question involves adoption law for the State of: Texas
my daughter is 8 years old, and her biofather refused to sign the bc when she was born. when i have been married for a year, how hard will it be for my husband to adopt her. i have not seen or heard from her biofather since she was 5 mo old, and he has never paid child support and will not claim her. do i still need his permission for my husband to adopt my daughter since he has been her only dad since she was 1?
