Can I move from Texas to Utah? Newborn baby, custody.?
I just had a baby, she is six weeks old and was born here in Texas. I would like to move from Texas to Utah. Her father came to the hospital to see her but did not sign the acknowledgement of paternity paper or the birth certificate. He started out having something to do with her but has since stopped calling and won’t answer my phone calls.
My question is can I move from Texas to Utah? Is there anything legally he can do to stop us from moving? I have a better support system there and will also continue college. Do I have to wait until I live in Utah for 6 months (interstate family law?) in order to file the paperwork to establish paternity and then move on to child support, custody, and visitation? Please help!
Depends on what Utah state law says. In Texas, you have to be here for 6 months to establish residency. But as of right now, in Texas this man has NO rights to this child because there is no legal document stating he is the father. Right now, he will have to take you to court to establish paternity. Better move asap because he has six months until you file.
