If the sperm donor impregnated your partner the "natural" way, you have a serious legal problem. California law strongly favors biological parents IF the impregnation was natural. Only if medical intervention is involved can a bio-father simply sign away parental rights. That does not mean that there is no way for you and your partner to retain parentage and block him out, but it is not going to be so simple as presenting the document and that will be the end of it. You will need to consult with a local attorney.
I agree with Mr. McCormick. If you did not use a medical doctor to assist with fertilization, you have big problems on your hands.
