IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE THIRTEENTH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT IN AND FOR HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY, FLORIDA
FAMILY LAW DIVISION
Case No.: 16-DR-016908
Division R
Alexander Sasser
Petitioner and
Andrea Ferguson
Respondent.
Pursuant to Florida Statute 742.021, upon filing of a complaint seeking to determine paternity the clerk of court shall issue a notice to each petitioner and to each respondent/defendant along with service of the petition.
“In order to preserve the right to notice and consent to the adoption of the child, an unmarried biological father must, as the “registrant,” file a notarized claim of paternity form with the Florida Putative Father Registry maintained by the Office of Vital Statistics of the Department of Health which includes confirmation of his willingness and intent to support the child for whom paternity is claimed in accordance with state law. The claim of paternity may be filed at any time before the child's birth, but a claim of paternity may not be filed after the date a petition is filed for termination of parental rights.”
You may obtain a copy of this form from the clerk's office or from the Florida Department of Health website at: http://www.doh.state.fl.us/planning_eval/vital_statistics/template3.htm.
