Adoption Law/Revocation

Law Info

A consent to the adoption of a minor who is to be placed for adoption may be executed by the birth mother 48 hours after the minor’s birth or the day the birth mother is notified in writing, either on her patient chart or in release paperwork, that she is fit to be released from the licensed hospital or birth center, whichever is earlier.

The consent is valid upon execution and may be withdrawn only if the court finds that it was obtained by fraud or duress.
