It depends. It may be that the nonbio father who signed the AOP will be found to be the child's legal father, in which case he'll owe support. If not much time has gone by, and he finds out he isn't the father, and the real father is located, this should be resolved by the family court so that the real father is responsible. The real father will also have the right to file for visitiation. Good luck.
