You cannot "disown" your father, but if there are circumstances in your life where your father is abusing you, or acting criminal towards you in some other capacity, there are avenues for help and for your protection.
Should you like to discuss this or any other legal matter, you can call my office to schedule an appointment for a consultation or in the alternative, I can be reached for on-phone low-cost legal consultation at 1-800-275-5336 x0233699

In theory, this is an easy question. You can terminate your father's status as your father by having another man adopt you. If you are under 18 years of age you can terminate your father's control over you and the legal requirement that you live with him by filing for "emancipation".
Those are the two (2) basic ways you can 'disown' or change his legal status towards you.
You havn't told me very much about what is going on and I am interested. The unique or specific or unusual facts of your situation might create an opportunity for some other tools that we could use to help you.
Let me know. For me, the first consultation is always free and I help out a lot of people for free or no money. One guy I helped walked my dog once a week. When his college scholarship kicked in, my dog was really upset! (I think my dog still misses him)
So give me a call.
