Re: Establishing Paternity

That depends on your goal.

I don't think her ex is stopping the divorce, the pregnancy is. And paternity is. Impossible for me to know what other issues are.

I would suggest that you hire an attorney to intervene in the case as to the unborn child. Courts will not 'bastardize' a child. You need to legally assert yourself as the parent, financially.
