What happens if the name of father on birth certificate is wrong?

It's not his child to keep. The mother is comitting fraud if she knows he is not the biological father. She can ask the bio-dad to relinquish his rights and her boyfriend can adopt the child when they are married. Then he can sign the birth certificate. You do not get rights to a child just because you want to. For the child's sake there are proper legal procedures.

If a father also has parental responsibility due to signing of the birth certificate can a mother change the name of child without his consent?
Please include your location when asking legal questions, as laws vary by state/country. Generally, she will be required to seek and obtain the father's permission for the name change, or provide a very compelling reason why she shouldn't need it. Not having a legally named father for the child will complicate this process.
How do you change your son last name from alleged father to the biological father last name?
You will have to go to court and write it all on a stamp paper and get it done by a magistrate. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In many countries you can not remove the natural fathers name from a birth certificate and a natural father has the rite to have his name added to a birth certificate. The only time you could reasonably have a father's name removed would be if you could prove the person on the certificate could not be the natural father (eg after a DNA test). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In order to remove a father's name from a birth certificate the person making the request must provide certified information to the state. The certified information must be in the form of a court order or a form signed by the biological father. Each state has its own rules. You need to contact your State Vital Records Department to determine what forms and proof they require. You should be able to find it simply by doing an internet search for your state + 'vital statistics'. Use the contact information at that website to make your inquiry. A sample request from the State of Texas is provided for your information at the link below. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If the name on the birth certificate is not the biological father, and the parents were not married when the child was born, then paternity testing, legal action and the court can decide to remove the name. HOWEVER, if the parent's WERE married, the father of the child is LEGALLY considered to be that person on the certificate, and to remove his name is very difficult. If the marriage was very very short, the baby didn't ever live with the father AND the true biological father was pursuing action to obtain parental rights AND the father on the birth certificate wanted out then there is a much greater chance. If all of these things are met, contact a family law lawyer. There is no do it yourself road on this one as far as I know. If it's about child support, contact your state's family services department. If you're the "dad", you are not getting off that certificate easily, even if your ex cheated and the child is not yours, unless you were never married and never lived together. If you're the mom, just know that both men will have to be on board with removing one name and putting the other on.
What if a woman commits adultery and gets pregnant by the other man and her husbands unknowingly signs the birth certificate. Does he have to pay child support?
Legally yes. Morally, that is just wrong. He needs to get himself an attorney, FAST!
Can the mother change her child last name?
Unless you have a very rare last name (not a Johnson, Smith, etc.) and she has not put your Christian name (first name) down on that certificate there is nothing you can do. If she has, then you need to get a genetics test done to settle this once and for all and have the courts remove your name from this certificate. For Example: Sean Carmichael Kiselbachian Such a name definetly pin points you, but if your name was Ben Johnson and that's what she put, there isn't too much you can do. That may not be the biggest issue that needs to be addressed. In almost every state a man who has been erroneously named on a birth certificate has a specified amount of time to prove that claim false. The CA. court system, in particular is well-known for wining child support awards from men who were not the biological father by the use of the default laws. Recently in CA. a man was ordered by the court to pay $120,000 in back support even though he proved through DNA testing the child was not his. The possibility of winning a lawsuit is highly unlikely. Likewise, states are reluctant (an understatement) to file charges against women who commit such action.
Why is capital punishment wrong?
Capitol punishment is usually considered wrong because 1. It doesn't punish the criminal. 2. It's just 'murder' in disguise and 3. We were told since birth murder is wrong.
Is there a law that's says if two parents of a child are married to other people the birth father can not sign the birth certificate?

What if the wrong father is put on the birth certificate?
A deceased father's name is not removed from any birth certificate. The purpose of an official record of birth is to record the name of the child's biological parents. Every child's father dies at some point. Their names are not removed from the birth certificate for that reason.

Can a girl get in trouble by putting another guy's name on the birth certificate who is not the real dad and proceed with adoption?
If the real dad does a paternity test you are in big trouble. You don't have to put the father down, leave the space empty. The adopting couple could get the child taken away if the adoption was proven to be done with false information. It would cause an awful lot of heartache to the child and the new parents.

How do you change a typographical error on a birth certificate?
YOu have to contact the Office of vital statistics in the state where the birth certificate was issued. Depending on the error they will tell you what to do. I had a similar situation in which my husbands date of birth was wrong on our daughters birth certificate. We had to get a certified copy of my husband's birth certificate and then I had to write a letter asking for the change and it had to be notarized! It was a pain but those are the hoops we jumped through. Hope this helps!
Can you view someone else's birth certificate?
That will vary from state to state. The best way to find out is contacting the Office of Vital Statistics or a name along those lines, in the state that the person named on the certificate is from and asking. In the state of Kansas, relatives may request the birth certificate as long as they are not cousins. Also, if the grandpa on the father's side makes the request and the father isn't listed on the certificate, he will need the mother's permission in order to request the certificate.
