Ask for a paternity test. Most states require that one is taken to ensure the father is the one who the mother said he is. If your state does not require a paternity test, then I would suggest paying for one out of pocket so that you can take the results to the court hearing. If you are not the father and there are papers stating that there is a hearing then you should be able to fight the hearing and the paperwork.

In the state of Massachusetts if a biological father is unaware of a child and the child is adopted by his stepfather is the bio dad responsible for any back child support?

Well if the Bio father is unaware of the baby then I don't believe he has to pay child support because the mom decided that the father didn't need to know about the child and if the child is adopted (like me) either by a step dad or by a different set of parent AND the father know about the child Then the father would need to pay back child support.

Of course not. The father must be named in the petition to establish paternity so the court will know who to notify. An order for DNA testing and subsequent child support order cannot be issued against an unnamed person.
