A: Where you married to the mother or have you legitimized the child? If the answer is no to both then you have to legal rights to the child and she can do that. In that case, you will need to legitimize the child. Once you do that you will be able to seek a custody arrangement that will give you the rights to see your child and if she doesn’t abide by the court order she will be in contempt. Work with an attorney who can help you with the legitimization process.
