Children born out of wedlock are by law, in the legal custody and control of the mother. Biological fathers (Bio-Dads or Baby Daddy if you will), must file a legitimation proceeding and have a court hearing to have any legal rights to the child(ren).

Until the child is legitimated via a Superior Court Order, the father has NO rights whatsoever to the child.
