IN THE PROBATE COURT OF MONROE COUNTY, OHIO

JAMES W. PETERS, JUDGE

IN THE MATTER OF THE ADOPTION OF: Aleah Marie Blackstone

CASE NO. 00031

NOTICE OF PUBLICATION

TO: The Unknown Father of Aleah Marie Cunningham, last known address is unknown.

You are hereby notified that on February 4, 2020, John and Shelly Blackstone filed in this Court a Petition for Adoption of Aleah Marie Cunningham, a minor, whose date of birth is October 13, 2011, and for change of the name of the minor to Aleah Marie Blackstone. The Court, located at 101 North Main Street, Room 39, Woodsfield, Ohio 43793 will have a hearing to consider whether or not your consent is necessary and whether the adoption is in the minor child’s best interest on the 28th day of April, 2020, at 9:30 o’clock a.m.

It is alleged in the Petition that, pursuant to R.C. 3107.07, the consent of the unknown father is not required due to the following:

That person is a parent who has failed without justifiable cause to provide more than de minimis contact with the minor for a period of at least one year immediately preceding the filing of the adoption petition or the placement of the minor in the home of the petitioner.

That person is a parent who has failed without justifiable cause to provide for the maintenance and support of the minor as required by law or judicial decree for a period of at least one year immediately preceding the filing of the adoption petition or the placement of the minor in the home of the petitioner.

A final decree of adoption, if granted, will relieve you of all parental rights and responsibilities, including the right to contact the minor and, except with respect to a spouse of the adoption petitioner and relatives of that spouse, terminate all legal rights of the minor’s other relatives, so that the minor thereafter is a stranger to you and the minor’s former relatives for all purposes. If you wish to contest the adoption, you must file an objection to the petition within fourteen days after proof of service of notice of the filing of the petition and of the time and place of hearing is given to you. If you wish to contest the adoption, you must also appear at the hearing. A final decree of adoption may be entered if you fail to file an objection to the adoption petition or appear at the hearing.
