I have another question about the grandparents suing for visitation for my friends 5 month old child. My friend received court papers today, the grandmother is petitioning the court for visitation rights,paternity test, which she wants my friend to pay for, and if the paternity test proves her son is the father, she wants the court to order my friend to change the childs last name to her sons and have him put on the birth certificate. The father in question is now deceased. Could the judge actually consider ordering the name change?
Doesn't the mother of the child have any rights in this matter. My friends attorney says that the grandparents visitation rights is relatively new and really doesn't know what will happen. Can anyone out there answer this for me, I would appreciate any info you could give us. Thanks.
