Amy,
I'm not sure if you understand........My take is that a birthfather must have registered within 30 days of the birth in order to protect his rights. If he has not signed by then, his rights are terminated on those grounds.
I recently went through this with my daughter's birthfather. His rights were terminated on other grounds as well, but also for not signing the registry before the Petition for Adoption was filed - that is my state's law.
When did your child's birthfather register? And if you don't mind my asking, who has custody of the child now?
I'm sorry for all that you are going through - it's a rough road, and one that I am currently traveling too...........
