I'm going to vital statistics here soon. If I establish that I'm on the birth certificate which proves I'm the father at that point what leeway do I have? If we can both prove we are parents and I have him currently won't the police just say there's nothing they can do and she has to wait until a court date or settlement out of court?
If you're on the birth certificate the police many not do anything anyway. But you NEED that court order.

Once I have proof I'm his legal father then if she can take him from me.. I can do that same.. correct? I mean what's she gonna say? I kidnapped him? I've stayed in the same house as always. She's the one trying to leave the state with him. She's not even a resident of GA yet and from what I've read she cannot even file custody there until she takes steps to do so.

The problem is SHE doesn't have to file for custody - she's by default the legal custodian. YOU are the one who needs to establish custody via the court system.


She doesn't have a license or voter registration and she doesn't even have mail going there.. We're both proven parents and I have him right now.. There's no reason they should be able to allow her to take him without my permission as well and if so.. I should be able to reach over and get him back.

The reason is that she's currently the only parent with LEGAL custody of the child - hence, every reason why she has more rights than you at the moment.


What's the difference if I can provide proof?
I have a lawyer I'm going to try to speak with today and I plan to make other calls as well to be certain to find the right one.

Good luck!
