I got pregnant when we were dating. After the baby was born, we got married. We are now going through a divorce and I want to tell him he is not the father. We live in Wisconsn. What legal recourse, if any, does he have? Can he still get joint custody/placement? Can he sue me for anything? I will never discuss who the real father is.
If you bring up the fact that he is not the father then your going to have to discuss who is. Also did he sign anything and is on the birth certificate? Did you lead him to believe he is the father and now your changing your story?
Unless the biological father disputes paternity, I doubt you will be able to stop your husband from getting custody and/or visitation. He is the LEGAL FATHER of the child.
If you're not going to discuss the biological father, then you're out of luck. Your husband currently has as many rights as you do to the child. He can absolutely still get joint custody and placement.
Frankly, unless you are divorcing your husband for reasons of abuse, how could you even THINK of taking away the only father your child has ever known?
At this time we don't know if the husband is the legal father or not. At the time of birth the OP states they were not married. Only after the birth did the marriage take place.Quote:

Thanks for clarification. I misread it as they were married when the baby was born.Quote:
