It refers to lawful birth. The assurance the child is who she is purported to be, and also the establishment of maternity and paternity.

Paternity must be established before child support is awarded. Therefore, it would be unlikely that "legitimation" would change the amount of that support.


What custody do a father have in Georgia not married?

If a child is born out of wedlock in Georgia, the father must file a petition seeking legitimation through the courts to become the legal father. Putting a name on a birth certificate is not sufficient. In the legitimation proceeding, the court has the authority to make custody determinations. If the father has not filed for legitimation, he is a legal stranger to the child, and has no rights to custody.

Department of economics takes you to court for childsupport what right do they have in who has custody of the child mother never married child's dad?

In cases like this the mother is always considered first for custody, unless for some reason she is not fit to handle her duty as a parent. They will then look into the fathers situation to see if he is fit. Now if the mother and father of the child were never married then the father does not have rights to that child unless he goes through a process called legitimation. Legitimation is just the father claiming the child in a court of law which would then give the father rights to that child and the child can inhereit from the father. You do not have to go through legitimation if the parents were married. Hope this helps.
