if his name is on birth certificate he is a father of your child legally and has the same rights as u do. so if he wants to take your baby from u and goes to court and has better lawer a baby will be his in no time. if u want to have the sole custody ask your bf to sign the papers where he gives up his rights for baby. otherwise it doesn't mean whether u live together or not, whether he pays alimonies or not - legally he is a father

Hi i am currently in a similar situation and found out that even tho he is on the birth certificate if it was registerd after 1 dec 2003 then he will have shared parental rights, which means he will also have a responsiblity to look after and provide for the child. reg before that date then the full parental rights is yours.Unless the pair of you singhed a shared parental rights form when you registerd the birth.
However after reading what you have written he has less rights with the assult on a child and if this has been dealt with through courts his rights for crimnal behaviour is limited as my ex has a crimnal record and domestic abuse charges this affects his rights with my children so he will be able to get supervised visits in an access centre and thats for the childs saftey. An hour with someone watching them.
I would suggest that you go to a civil solicitor and get the best advice you can but from what i have found out and my solicitor has told me due to the nature of his defence it is unlikly and if so it will merley be an hour supervised in a centre of some sort. But if you dont want this you can fight this untill you get the outcome you want, you also have the "childrens rights" department of which you can look up on, if the child doesnt want to see him.
The thing a court is going to look at is his behaviour with the child how much interest he has took in the childs life and his crimnal record.these are all factors against him that could make his case tumble if he wants to go to court.
Hope this can help! All the best

If he does not deny paternity and he is on the birth certificate then you can collect child support and he has the right to visitation...even if he doesnt pay child support. If you dont want him around he doesnt care about the child you could ask him to sign over parental rights, or if in fact he did try to rape a girl and he was convicted or you have proof, you could file for full custody of your child ( which you should do anyway, just to establish custody so he cant take the child away from you) and you could also ask the court to have supervised visitation if you dont trust him. But he does have the right to see the child as well as pay child support if he is on the birth certificate. Good Luck:)

He does have rights with his name being on the birth certificate. But if the courts have to make a decision, they will decide if it is in the interest of the child to see his father, not the father to see his son. So if you can prove that he is not a fit father then the courts would look at this and decide if it is good or not for the child to see him.

He really doesn't seem to be a nice person but he is the father of your son. He has as much right as you have over your son. Biologically,a child belongs to the father. No woman can make babies on her own no matter how "angelic" she may be. There are no perfect parents we all have our strengths and weaknesses. Instead of debating over who owns what right,i think you need to focus your energy in molding the character of your son. Your son already has your boyfriend's genetic traits in him & he will need a lot of training and discipline. The duty for every parent married or single ,should be to raise kids they would always be proud off. No matter how "angelic" I may be I want my kids to be better than their mum and dad.I think you should too!

My buddy replaced into interior a similar seize 22 issue. She had to attend till the daddy have been given out via fact the certificates does require the actually signature of the guy. i do no longer think of they allow you to mail it to him and convey it back via fact they might desire to be waiting to be helpful that the guy's signature on the start certificates is the actually individual that signed it. They try this via fact whilst a guy is taken to court docket for baby help, his signature on the start certificates legally binds him to ought to pay. the only way he can get out of paying is that if a paternity attempt is complete and he's shown to no longer be the daddy. in any different case, the minute a woman chooses to sue for baby help that guy has to pay, now and returned and not utilising a court docket listening to. it is going to be ok to your youngster's father to sign it at 6 months via fact which you in all likelihood should not be utilising the start certificates yet till you're making plans on shifting.

If he takes you to court,you will be offered mediation first,this means talking over the situation and trying to come to an arrangement you both agree to. Usually the people will take your concerns very seriously,it doesn't sound like your going to be able to sort this out without taking it to court especially if you arn't keen on him having contact. I would trust your better judgement for the time being and not let your son near him,if your ex is that bothered he will get the courts involved.

he does have some rights because he is the father and his name is on the birth certificate, but he doesnt have as much rights as you as you arent married. i would advise you to speak to a lawyer though. he would probably be allowed supervised access once or twice a week.

he does have a right if you like to see him but from what you have told us his not a good dad anyway. you need to get some advise on where you stay with all this. one thing is for sure your son dont need him around. go to the citizens advice they should be able to help you and will tell you where you and he stand. you should not let your son be left alone with him.

Get a custody order. List his convictions.
If he pays child support, you must let him have visitation if a judge ordered it.
If not, you need to act first. If you don't want any kind of support have it drawn out with a no contact order. (Kind of a carrot for him to sign.)
All else fails there is the old fashioned restraining order. He breaks it, goes to jail.
