If the person giving birth is married but not to the biological father: The birthing parents spouse is presumed the parent unless they take action to end their legal relationship with the child.
By law, if the mother and the father of a child were not married at the time of the childs birth, the mother has sole custody of the child until a court issues a custody order. This is true even if the parents have signed a Recognition of Parentage and both names appear on the childs birth certificate.
If a child is born to Minnesota parents who are married, both parents have equal custody and parenting time rights upon the childs birth.
Under Minnesota law, if a childs biological mother and biological father are not married to each other when the child is born, the biological father is not recognized as the legal father until someone takes legal steps to establish paternity.
Even if parenting time is equal, if the parental incomes are different, the parent with the higher income will usually pay basic child support to the other parent to balance the household resources of both homes, based on the number of overnights granted.

Before custody can be determined and awarded, it is necessary for the court to determine who are the legal parents under the law. This concept is commonly known as parentage under the law, and these cases are commonly referred to as paternity cases.
Some parents are able to manage a roughly 50/50 custody split, meaning that the child lives with each parent an equal amount of time. This can work if both parents live close to one another and to the childs school, and are able to exchange the child regularly without difficulty.
