Computer programs themselves are mostly not patentable but in some cases they can be patentable (you can patent processes performed by the software).

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.

You must go to your dad like the Court Order between your dad and mom says. If you don't, your mom could get in trouble. So, make the best of it, and try very hard to get along with your dad. I'm sure he loves you if he is attempting visits with you.

I think you are asking how a step father can become the child's father if the biological father is not in the picture. I would recommend that you hire an attorney and look into seeing if the biological father would be open to the step father adopting the child.

If a patent is expired, then whatever is in the patent is generally considered in public domain, meaning, that anyone should be able to use it.
