If the mother is not married to anyone else there is no one else considered to be the more likely father, so the father's marital status does not bar him from claiming the child and signing the birth certificate if he is willing to do so.

The name of the actual father of the child should go on the birth certificate. If you are not legally divorced, then your legal husband would be automatically considered to be the child's father by law. If the child has a different father, he can complete a voluntary acknowledgement of the paternity of a child, in which he signs that he is the child's father and is therefore put on the birth certificate and named as the legal father. The hospital will help with this after the baby is born.

No, this is why the birth certificate does not hold up in court when the father seek paternal rights because it is not fool proof by showing DNA.

Only the biological father is allowed to sign it and if you know the one signing it is not the father, you are committing fraud.
