If someone other than your husband is the father of your child, you may want to file a Motion or Complaint to Determine Child Born Out of Wedlock. This request asks the judge to revoke (undo) your husband’s status as legal father. Either you, your husband, or the biological father must file this motion or complaint. Otherwise, your husband will continue to be your child’s legal father, and the biological father will not have any parental rights or responsibilities.
