Would a SAPCR need to be filed by a step parent whenever adopting a step child and terminating the biological father's rights?
Answer
No.
For a parent's right to be terminated that is a termination lawsuit.
For the step-parent to then adopt the child is an adoption lawsuit.
They are separate lawsuits but they would be handled together by the court.
