More details to this question:
They got married in Arkansas after finding out she was pregnant. They lived in Arkansas for less than a month before she started talking about getting an abortion. He couldn't take the thought of it and left. She then decided to keep the baby, but told him there was a chance that it wasn't his and hardly let's him have anything to do with the baby. They have lived separately in Arkansas for almost 2 years now and hr can't get a divorce because she refuses to sign the papers and is Native American. What can he do?

I don't believe that wfe being a native American has any relevancy. Perhaps, if she lives on a reservation with the child there may be some Federal Law applicable that I am not familiar with.
