What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Ohio
The biological father of my child and I separated in January 2007 and divorced in March of 2007. At the time I had a civil protection order and he was not obligated to pay child support. He had no visitations or obligations. Since the CPO ended he has seen his son about 5 times, at my request. I got married a second time in August of 2007 and the man I am married to is in the military. He has been every definition of my child's father except biological.
The last time I communicated with my son's biological father was September 2009. He inquired about giving up his parental rights. I told him I hadn't decided whether or pursue child support or go along with his request to terminate his rights. He has since blocked me from contacting him online and I have no phone number or address. We are moving out of state again in a few months for a military PCS. I would like to have this taken care of as much as possible before then. How do I proceed? What kind of cost is involved?
I called the Ohio Department of Jobs and Family Services last July to file for child support but I am unsure if anything was ever processed. At this point I think it is in the best interest of all parties for him to give up his parental rights.
