Recognition of paternity (French law) Explanation: In France, on registering the birth, it is up to the father to recognise paternity -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2017-05-24 17:00:58 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- NOT a note, a highly officious page in the family book or on birth certificate. This one I know, having married the father of my then 4 year old son in France in 1991. At the end of an exceedingly long and laborious process we received our 'family book' with son duly legitimised. As we were both Brits this was sent to Lyon for ratification. Lyon stamped it, but then sent it to Paris, who red lined the lot. My son became a 'recognised person' when he got married to a French/Spanish girl in 2012 - hey ho! Prior to the marriage my hubbie had the embarrassing task of swearing to the Mayor, on his honour, that he was truly his son's father - this was duly appended to our family book. |

the note recording acknowledgement Explanation: i.e. the note added to the child's birth certificate (or the family book) recording the fact that the father acknowledged the child (biologically) as his own The effect of the judgment here is that the note is ordered to be deleted -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 7 hrs (2017-05-24 21:25:03 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- When a child is born to parents who are not married to each other, the biological father is not considered the child's legal parent unless the father has signed an « Acknowledgment of Paternity » (reconnaissance de paternité) declaring himself to be the child's father. A petition may be filed in court seeking an order of filiation and an order of support. Exceptionally, the mother can be unknown and a petition may be filed under certain circumstances. http://www.nht-avocat.com/filiation.php |
