LEGAL COURTHOUSE? As opposed to what? A NON LEGAL COURTHOUSE? And, you cannot simply walk in and change your name. There is a hearing before a judge and he/she must approve the name change.

BUT--LISTEN CAREFULLY--THAT WASN'T WHAT THE POSTER WAS ASKING. HE WASN'T ASKING HOW TO CHANGE HIS NAME. HE WAS ASKING HOW TO AMEND A BIRTH CERTIFICATE.

He is attempting to GET HIS NAME on the child's birth certificate --which means, as he has already stated, if the DNA test came back that the child is his ( which he did not state conclusively, hence MORE information needed) he must go to court to do so since someone ELSES name is on the birth certificate as the father, or else it is left blank. In any regard, he is apparently attempting to amend the birth certificate and this CANNOT BE DONE BY WALTZING INTO A "LEGAL" COURTHOUSE (whatever the dickens THAT is).

When I said I didn't need more information on the OTHER thread, it was after some dear misguided soul posted ELEVEN PARAGRAPHS OF NOTHINGNESS on another thread concerning a completely different subject. And I didn't need more information about her blathering to explain how the LAW works regarding ANY civil liability case. You had the same eleven paragraphs of information, and all you said was you NEEDED MORE information.

And, I don't need more information to provide procedural information about how to change the name on the birth certificate. BUT, I DO need to know what the posters OBJECTIVE IS--which completely escaped your notice---NOT a NAME CHANGE. But, getting a BIRTH CERTIFICATE amended.

I find it egregious you have nothing to offer but INCORRECT information. Telling the poster he can simply waltz into a LEGAL COURTHOUSE (wth that means) and change the name on someone ELSE'S BIRTH CERTIFICATE is not only stupid, it is ILLEGAL and FRAUDULENT to even attempt such a thing.

You, Sir, have no conscience whatsoever and you are not even a marginal liar.
