We are in the process of a Strip/Adopt in the State of California. Before we proceed I asked the paternal father if he would rather sign a consent to adoption instead of going to court. He has not seen the child in over 5 years, made any attempt at visitation, nor paid child support in this time. He does not have any custody or visitation and that is ordered. He never showed to court, as a matter of fact he was in the building at the time sitting in jail. Anyway, He agrees to sign the consent provided I bring it to him. I drive 5 hours, he doesn't sign. Meanwhile, "out of the blue", he sends a card to my child, stating that he agrees to the adoption that he loves my husband and us, and Good luck.
I personally do not know if this is helpful or harmful to our case. Any ideas on this?
Thank you, RLWoody
