Legitimation/Paternity

Paternity is an action filed by the biological mother to establish an order for a biological father, not her husband, to pay child support. A paternity action is solely for the financial support of the minor child and will not establish any rights for or in the father as to custody or parenting time. DNA testing will be required to establish paternity.
