My ex-wife got pregnant during the marriage, later we got divorced and she married her child’s father. So the situation is quite favorable as there is a chance that we can avoid judicial recourse. But what will happen in case child’s father refuses to be registered as the father of the child? Will I be automatically registered as child’s father and I will not be able to controvert it even in court as at the moment of registration I was aware of the fact that the child is not mine (Art. 52 part 2)?

My mother threatens to prosecute a claim for alimony payments as she has been granted a disability pension. She has got two more daughters. I am registered in my mother’s apartment. At the present time I live in the USA and have a green card, I am 29, divorced and have no children. I study in a university and have to pay for my education. I’m planning to obtain US citizenship and renounce Russian citizenship. Can I renounce Russian citizenship as she threatens to prosecute a claim against me, and can she oblige me to effect alimony payments in the territory of the USA? I am not planning to come to Russia. In case she obliges me to effect alimony payments in the territory of the USA, what can be the amount of alimony payments as prices and living standards are different here and I am not sure I will be able to pay my bills here including payments for education.
