What can I do if I don't want the father to have any rights to child?

This is a frequently asked question and a phenomenon of getting into a one night stand or short term relationship with someone you barely know. Under Wisconsin law, if the child was born out of wedlock, he has no legal rights to the child whatsoever unless paternity is established; that can be done by both of you singing a voluntary acknowledgment of paternity and filing it with the state vital stats in Madison, or by either of you filing a formal paternity action in court. You can request DNA testing to prove whether he is the biological father. 9nce paternity is established in one of the two ways listed here, the court can hold what is referred to as a "terms hearing" for purposes of establishing custody and placement, child support, health insurance coverage and other important issues that will impact your child.         If you believe he is a risk to your child, you can request a court appointed guardian ad litem for the child and request restricted or supervised visitation.
