Your cousin is liable to the girl and her baby the same as if they had gotten married and she got pregnant and then they divorced while she was pregnant. That means he will have to pay child support. It also means he will have the same rights as a divorced dad too, so he can ask for visitation or even full custody eventually, if she turns out not to be able to properly raise the child.
