New step father wants to adopt child that has no father on birth certificate
I am a new step father and I wish to adopt my 4 year old step son and my 8 year old step son . The 4 year old does not have a father listed on the birth certificate and the 8 year old does but the bio-father has not made any kind of contact in 5 years but is court ordered to pay child support and has not in four years. And owes almost $30,000 in past and present child support. Is there any way to at least start the process with the 4 yr old he has never in the 4 years of his life had any kind of contact with him and the division of child support can not locate him
