Assumed and Automatic Paternity in Colorado In situations where a child is born to a married couple, or within 300 days post-divorce, Colorado law presumes the husband to be the childs father. This is known as assumed or automatic paternity and does not require any further legal actions or processes.
But he doesnt. Second issue -- fathers rights. In Colorado, if the two parents are not married, the mother automatically has full legal and physical custody over the child. Thats your situation here. Even though you have been living together with the father, he has no legal rights or control over the child.
A summons is a legal document telling you when and where to appear in court to respond to charges. You may have received it from a police officer after a traffic stop or another encounter. In Colorado, people often call it a ticket, especially when its related to driving but it carries real legal consequences.

If the respondent admits paternity, an order of filiation is entered. If the parties cannot agree on paternity, the matter is then scheduled for a hearing. Both parties may testify and present witnesses and the blood or DNA test results may be offered in evidence.
Colorado, including Denver, does not automatically recognize the rights of an unlisted father. However, fathers still have options. By taking legal steps, fathers can establish paternity and pursue their rights under Colorado family law.
Fathers not initially on the birth certificate can petition the court for custody rights once paternity is established.
Colorado paternity jurisdiction means Colorado can adjudge parentage, order the childs birth certificate changed, and order child support and birthing costs. However, without more, the paternity court cannot issue child custody or visitation orders.
Contrary to popular belief, Colorado courts take into account each parents situation when deciding on child custody, making it a father-friendly state.
