Adoption-Putative Father-Fraud

Abstract

Amends the Adoption Act. Provides that a lack of knowledge of the pregnancy or birth is not an acceptable reason for failure to register with the Putative Father Registry, unless that lack of knowledge was due to a fraudulent misrepresentation by the birth mother (instead of a lack of knowledge of the pregnancy or birth is not an acceptable reason for failure to register). Provides that a putative father who brought an action to assert an interest in the child, but who did not obtain a ruling from the court that he proved certain conditions by clear and convincing evidence, has an opportunity to present evidence at a hearing to overcome the prima facie evidence of sufficient grounds to support termination of his father's rights under this Act.
