Did the natural father have to register with the OR putative father registry?

Camira B: Did the natural father have to register with the OR putative father registry?
Hello again. Quick question. My baby was conceived in California and born in Hawaii, but the adoptive couple lives in Oregon. The father did not sign consent forms. Under HI law, the father must give consent, but under OR law, the father has no rights unless he signed up with the registry. Why would someone sign up in the registry of a state that neither he nor the natural mother was ever in though? Did he have to sign up in the registry or does HI law apply since they baby was born here?

I’m confused. Are you that baby? If so, it probably depend when you were born.

I was born in the early 60’s, and there was NO permission needed from my father at all.

In fact, even though he was my mother’s boyfriend for 5 years at that time, he isn’t even on my original birth certificate.

HI law prevails. The registries pertain only to children born within the state.

I believe that the father is only required to register in the state of birth…
