Unwed Mother Move-Away From California
My question involves paternity law for the State of: California
I am an unwed mother of a 1/2 year old baby. On his birth certificate, the father name is blank. However, the baby has his dad's last name. The dad of the baby has never established for paternity. Baby has been living with me. The dad has been visiting the baby from time to time.
Recently my current company relocate me to a foreign country for an assignment (there is no deadline on the assignment). I wonder if I can just move with the baby without his knowledge of consent.
Can he file to established paternity after I moved to a foreign country?
If so, does he have the right to take the baby back? (Note that I will try my best to maintain the quality of life for the baby.)
If so, what is going to be likely for the term of visitation?
Will I have to pay for his ticket to meet the baby? (I make more money).
What if I loose the job while I am in the country. Do I have to move back?
NOTE: we are both U.S. citizen.
