custody right of a sex offender

[protectmybaby]

What is the name of your state? Oregon
My daughters Bio-father has not seen her sence she was under a year old. She is now 8. He does NOT pay the court orderd support. She just found out that she has a diffrent Dad than the one that has been raising her. Her bio wants to see her and she does not want to see him. I found out that he has been arrested twice for rapeI and once for contributing to the sexual delinkquance of a minor. He did time in jail and is a regesterd sex offender. I do NOT want him near my child. We were never married and there is no court orderd visitation. I DO NOT WANT HIM NEAR MY BABY. How can I get him removed form her birth certificate or stop him from getting visitation?

With no contact & no support (not to mention sex offender), you could file for termination of his parental rights.

If your husband is willing to adopt her, then a new birth certificate will be issued with his name as the father.

After all this time I can't imagine a judge ordering your daughter to visit her biodad. He can't just walk back in after 8 years and demand his "rights".

It will take some effort for him to try to force visitation, and it doesn't sound like he's the type to work very hard for it.

Good luck
