How about the state requiring a DNA test as dispositive proof of paternity?
This way, there are no reimbursement issues.
One issue I can see with this is that a mother can indicate you to be the father, requiring the father to submit to a DNA test to establish that fact. Being forced to submit to a DNA test probably violates 4th Amendemnt.
Cost of the test is born by the parent not burdened with the immediate care responsibilities of the child.
We seem to get backed into a corner with so many laws that contradict each other. But our Congress is rich beyond belief. That’s all they really care about. Talk about Sickos. Moore hasn’t a clue.
OK - then submission to a DNA test to prove/disprove paternity should be voluntary... but if you refuse, then you had BETTER have some other defense - like impotence...
