I think your best bet is going to be to get the child's mother to agree to visitation. There is a very limited time window to challenge paternity, typically no more than two years. You can meet with an attorney for a consultation to discuss the specific facts of your case.

There are only two ways to terminate parental rights in Oklahoma.
1) the child is adopted or 2) the state can terminate rights in a deprived child case.
No.
I need legal help, I need my daughter home.
If your parental rights were terminated and the child was adopted, you would no longer have any rights to the child. Meet with an attorney to review your case in detail and they will then be able to explain any options you may have at this point.
She is on drug court and im a convicted felon
Yes.
It was a one night stand and he was not told about the child. If paternity proves he is the Dad is he liable to pay child support arrears? Or only need to pay from this point forward?
He could be liable for up to two years back support. It used to be five years but the law changed limiting it to only two years. He needs to hire an attorney asap to make sure he does not get stuck paying more than the law requires.
One of the parties to present the decree.
I live in Oklahoma. My parents want to move me back to Texas. I do not want to go and i have a friend I can stay with. Her mom is even okay with it. Is there a way I can stay with her?
If your parents agree to allow you to do so.
In Oklahoma, there is no trial by ambush. Witness and exhibits are required to be disclosed in Pre trial/Resolution Conference proceedings or prior to that in discovery.
I just am, wondering if its legal to get the papers this way or if there is an easier/ cheaper way. Also I do not know what this will include
When you download documents from the internet there is no telling what you will get. Never rely upon any documents other than those produced by an experienced attorney. As with all things, it is much cheaper and faster to have it done right the first time.

Your question was posted in the Oklahoma Section. You should post your question in the Missouri forum so you can get answers from attorneys licensed in that state.
How can you get that on the judges desk?
If these are records concerning a child that is the subject of the custody case, talk to your attorney about getting an order from the court for the sealed records.
Your attorney will file an Entry of Appearance and a Response to the Motion to Modify. After reviewing your case your attorney may also recommend requesting DHS records and discovery.
We stayed at the father in law's home in OK for over 6 months with intent to return to our home in TX. His health never improved. But we never changed addresses.
A person must live in Oklahoma six months to file a divorce and in the county where it was filed for the last 30 days. If there is a dispute over jurisdiction it would be decided by the judge.
