NOTICE TO NAMED FATHER STATE OF INDIANA SS KOSCIUSKO COUNTY IN RE THE ADOPTION OF DILLON MICHAEL COMBS, KEITH ZAVIER COMBS, and BROOKE CIARA COMBS IN THE KOSCIUSKO SUPERIOR COURT #1 2009 TERM CAUSE NUMBER 43D01-0909-AD-19 Donald Leon Combs, who has been named the father of Dillon Michael Combs, Keith Zavier Combs and Brooke Ciara Combs, born to Chasity Pauwels on January 21, 1992; November 3, 1995 and July 29, 1998 respectively, is notified that a petition for adoption of the children was filed in the office of the Clerk of Kosciusko Superior Court #1,121 N. Lake Street, Warsaw, Indiana. If Donald Leon Combs seeks to contest the adoption of the children, he must file a motion to contest the adoption in accordance with IC 31-19-10-1 in the above named Court, or a paternity action under IC 31-14 not later than thirty (30) days after the date of service of this notice. If Donald Leon Combs: (1) does not file: (A) a motion to contest the adoption; or (B) a paternity action under IC 31-14; within thirty (30) days after service of this notice; or (2) after filing a paternity action under IC 31-14 fails to establish paternity; the above named court will hear and determine the petition for adoption. His consent will be irrevocably implied and he will lose his right to contest either the adoption or the validity of his implied consent to the adoption. He will lose his right to establish his paternity of the children under IC 31-14. Nothing Chasity Pauwels or anyone else says to Donald Leon Combs relieves Donald Leon Combs of his obligations under this notice. Under Indiana law, a putative father is a person who is named as or claims that he may be the father of a child born out of wedlock, but who has not yet been legally proven to be the child's father. For purposes of this notice, Donald Leon Combs is a putative father under the laws in Indiana regarding adoption. This notice complies with IC 31-19-4-5 but does not exhaustively set forth a putative father's legal obligations under the Indiana adoption statutes. A person being served with this notice should consult the Indiana adoption statutes. Jason McSherry, Clerk Kosciusko Superior Court #1 o5,12,19
