Does anyone know the condtions for adoption in Michigan?
|
I am getting married relativly soon to a man that is not the father of my child. The father of my child has NEVER been a active participant in his daughter's life and is not even on her birth certificate. Would her father still have to give consent to my fiance adopting her or can my fiance go ahead and file for adoption without his consent?

The natural father will still need to sign off on the adoption. |

You need to speak with an attorney in Michigan. Choose one that specializes in family or adoption law.
There are many ins and outs of adoption law and an attorney will asked you more questions about your situation and then help determine what course of action will satisfy the law. |

Hi. I live in Michigan and have been through this. The criteria for terminating a parents rights when they will not sign in Michigan is 2 years of no financial support and 2 years without adequate parenting time.
I would think since you are moving from another state that you should also follow the rules of that state for terminating his rights. Whether you have to publish your intent in the newspaper or serve him papers depends on what state you are coming from. It would be best to do this to cover your butt :) this would give him the option to come to Michigan and tell his side or prove his support and visitation. If he chooses not to come his rights can be terminated without him. |
