Due Process

The ACLU successfully opposed an amendment to Idaho law which would have allowed adoptions to take place without notice to some unwed fathers.  Men who executed a voluntary acknowledgement of paternity would be considered fathers for purposes of child support but would not be entitled to notice of adoption or termination of parental rights.  The ACLU opposed the bill as a violation of a father’s constitutionally protected interest in parenting his child.
