not sure if i worded that correctly but heres the story. My husbands ex had been trying to get pregnant since before he met her. she was getting tattoos in april of 07 that she was getting for her 'son'. so my husband and her went out for about a month and then she broke up with him. shortly after he moved in with me and we got married and then she called him and told him she was pregnant. at that point he didnt believe her and still doesnt. he told her that he wanted a dna test to prove that he was the father, she never contacted him again. she did however contact me, saying sometimes that he was the father and sometimes telling me to tell him he wasnt the father. so in april of 2008 all contact stopped, she just stopped responding to our calls and emails. during the pregnancy she moved around alot, because she didnt have a job and her family didnt want to support her, she stole from her last job and from her family constantly. she took pictures of herself laying in the middle of the street with other people while she was 6 months pregnant. when she had the baby she never contacted my husband or myself to even say hey i had the baby. she did put my husbands name on the birth certificate tho. she then filed for state aid and moved in with a 'boy friend' (this is the 8th place she moved since september 2007) the baby would sleep on the couch because she couldnt afford furniture or a crib, she would beg her friends and family to buy her food and pay her way for things. any way in march this year we received a letter from the o.c. child support stating they were filing a lawsuit to establish child support and the back payments of the state aid she has been receiving. of course my husband contested it and requested a dna test. in april he went down and did his test. she blew off 2 appointments and still hasnt given the baby's dna. she has been getting tattoos and going out alot with guys while the baby is who knows where. now she is in oregon still no job taking trips to vegas and back and forth to california. the baby still doesnt have a crib. (she moved to oregon because all her family kicked her out and none of her friends would let her stay, the only other family she has is in oregon.) my husband has honorable intentions IF the child is his, he wants the child in his life. we both have stable jobs and a stable home. and yes im a very supporative wife, i think it would be best if the child was with us (hes a year old now, i forgot to mention that). i really believe that she is still too all about herself and the child is just another object in her life. sorry this is so long. but do you think we would have a good case to get custody of the baby? oh the mother isnt 21 yet and has been drinking alot and used to smoke weed, also she falls in love with every boyfriend she has after the first day they are together.
his name is already on the birth certificate, thats why they are filing a lawsuit.
 
contact child services, explain the situation to them they're going to tell you you have to get a dna test and prove first that the child is his, if she keeps ditching the dna test take her to court, so you can put his name on the birth certificate. once his name is on the certificate, you going to want a custody hearing, if you explain to the court what you explained here, you're going to get full custody.

but in the end it all comes down to money; that's all the court see's they took my cousin from my aunt and refused to bugde because the dad had a home and she didn't...
 
I would get a lawyer and get the DNA test court ordered, that way she will be found in contemp if she doesnt take the baby in to the clinic.File for custody if you are ready finacially for this child.AS it looks as if she isnt, most likely your husband can win this case(and needs to).
