Judge King would have requested Obama Jr's mother (Ann Dunham) provide a copy of the birth because:
1) The judge must know who the parents are before he awards child support
2) The judge must know who the parents are before he awards custody
Go away troll. Don't waste your time on "Conspiracy nuts" ...
You, with all due respect, are delusional.
The judge settles disputes. If the plaintiff asks for custody and the respondent does not contest, then the plaintiff will get custody. If the plaintiff asks for child support and there is no argument against posed by the respondent, the the plaintiff is awarded child support (as calculated by the court per financial filing on both sides). No disputes, no need for the court to invent one.
It is common for a man to pay support for children that are not his, only because he supported the children during the marriage (this subject has been discussed extensively on this forum).
Birth certificates are not evidence of paternity. Often a man is named as a father without his knowledge or consent. The court would not use a birth certificate for this purpose.
