What legal rights does a 16-year-old father have to his unborn child?
Gill114
All minors who are believed to be the father of a child must present proof of paternity to the court before they can file a petition for joint custody or visitation rights.
Such proof can only be established after the birth of the child and the preferred and indisputable method is through DNA testing.
I'm not an attorney and this is not legal advice. I have been dragged through the "system" for over 11 years and what I can tell you is that as a father of any age you don't really have any rights other than to " pay for play" as it has been told to me several times. The Truth is as far as I know until the child is born you have no rights. Wich really stumps me why the " right to life" people don't get involved with this issue.Now you can read till you go blind the laws of Michigan and what you will find is that for every law you think will help you there is another law that contradicts it. this how the sate of MI can stick to it's agenda. learn the grievance process , keep all your paper work always. bring pleanty of wittnesses to any hearing and ask them to keep notes, learn your local f.o.c handbook word for word cover to cover.if you can afford the transcripts at the hearings always buy them and compare the transcripts to your notes as courts often take out anything that will incriminate them.lawyers work for courts ( in my opinion and many others. ) your in for a long haul my friend. hang in there and although the courts and often the mothers don't look after the best interests of the child YOU MUST. as the child gets older they will see whats going on and there is more to life than the first 18 years.
