Child's name changed without informing or taking consent of other parent

My child custody is in the final stage.The respondent ( my wife) has not come in any of the court dates.and the problem is that I have come to know that the name of my son has been changed without informing or taking consent from me.

The name of my son that I imentioned in the petition is as per the Birth certificate and previous school record.The new name is not as per birth certificate.

Now if judge passes permanent custody order , bearing the name mentioned as per birth certificate, my wife might say, both the persons are not same as name has been changed.

Please guide what to do.

May be you can file petition before final decree or order as respondent has change the child name.

If you any proofe of change that would be better.

You can file a petition before the same court seeking direction to the respondent /wife to revert the child's name to that of the name as appearing in the birth certifiate and restrain her from changing the name of the child as per her  whims and fancies.

This petition cane be filed in he ongoing case itself.

Your fears appears to be hypothetical.
