Despite the morals and ethics involved with the right a father has as far as custody of his child it really depends on the state as far as what the mother can and cannot due. For example in the state of Oregon in order for the father to have any real standing in the court the father must be providing for the mother at the time of consumption and the time in between and prior to the birth. In most cases that is financially such as living with her, paying for food, clothes, medical, etc. He must also PROVE he is the father by taking a paternity test which often costs SO much that the case will usually not be seen before a court because the father simply cannot afford it.

I advise you to check the laws in your state as far as custody rights. It might even be best to just call an adoption agency near you and ask because they are very up-to-date on the laws and regulation.

Hope this helps. Good luck!
He needs to get a lawyer today. Tell him to not sign anything till his lawyer tells him to. Get the lawyer for himself not with her.
she can't give the baby up for adoption without his permission that would be illegal.



he should get a lawyer.
Im sorry I dont know the answer to your question- a lot of it depends on the state you live in.



I just wanted to commend your brother on the responsible decision he is making to step up and handle his responsibilities. %26amp; to you... You are such a wonderful person for helping him out!



May god bless yall and may things work out for you in the end!



Goodluck
She will not be able to unless he signs off. Tell him to get a lawyer and be ready for a fight
He has to get a lawyer before the baby is born. With the lawyer's help, he has to file with the Court to ask a Judge to order a paternity test, as soon as the child is born. The filing asking for the paternity test should also indicate that the mother of the child has expressed that she has no intention of raising the child, and if the paternity test shows the child to be your brothers then he wants full custody. If the child is his (don't be surprised if it isn't) and she doesn't want it, then he'll get sole custody. It will require a separate filing to ask the Court to award him child support to be paid by the mother, and even if she never wanted to keep the child, she'll have to pay child support, if he's the father and keeps the baby.
He needs to legitimize the baby as soon as possible. Legitimizing the baby is like telling the state ';I'm the father of this baby, I'm going to be responsible for him/her and there's no way in hell anyone is taking them away from me.'; To do that legally, he needs to contact a lawyer.
He should see a lawyer, as soon as possible. You never know how things are going to go with this girl. She may cause a lot of problems if she wants to give it up, yet doesn't want him to have it. Also, before he goes through with full custody, he needs to have a paternity test done, just to be sure it's his (you never know).
lawyer and make sure he signs the birth certificate when the baby is born
she can't give the baby up for adoption with out his permission and/or him signing adoptions papers. which means someone is going to have to contact him..an adoption person or lawyer on her side.



he could ask her parents how they are going about things and contact those people or he could wait until they contact him..
