The large number of divorces registered annually leads to the fact that children remain on the mother's support, and fathers only participate in their maintenance and upbringing. Unfortunately, it so happens that it is they who can withdraw from participation in the life of their children, and in this case a woman can go to court with a lawsuit, according to which she will demand to deprive her ex-husband of the rights to the child.
Instructions
Step 1
The reasons that may become the basis for depriving one of the parents of the right to a child are listed in Art. 69 of the Family Code of the Russian Federation. These include: evasion of parental responsibilities, refusal to take the child from the hospital, abuse of parental rights, abuse of the child, chronic alcoholism or drug addiction, as well as the commission of a deliberate crime against the child or second spouse.
Step 2
If there is at least one of the listed reasons, go to court. But keep in mind that this process will require strong and convincing arguments to prove that such facts did take place. They must be documented or corroborated by testimony.
Step 3
The easiest way is to collect evidence that the child's father does not provide him with the necessary material assistance. Systematic avoidance of alimony payments can become irrefutable evidence of failure to fulfill their parental responsibilities. It will be more difficult to prove the existence of other reasons that may become an excuse to deprive an ex-husband of the right to a child.
Step 4
In the event that you know for sure that the child's father abuses alcohol or is a drug addict, your words will not be sufficient proof. Please provide evidence to support this fact. The same can apply to other reasons: abuse, abuse of parental rights, even immoral behavior - everything that can harm the physical and mental health of a child.
Step 5
The court will also review how your ex-husband's behavior has changed since the divorce, which was the impetus for your decision to revoke his parental rights. The judge will also want to know the opinion of the biological father himself. If your claim is rejected, do not despair - in a year you have the right to return to this issue and file a claim again.
