Legal Question in Family Law in California

I'm assuming that the Voluntary Declaration of Paternity was filed with the Department of Child Support Services. A complete voluntary declartion of paterinty, that has been filed with the Department of Child Support Services shall establish the paternity of a child and have the same force and effect as a judgment for paternity issued by a court. (Fam. Code, sect. 7573.)

Either parent may rescind the voluntary declaration of paterinty by filing a rescission form with the Department of Child SUpport Services within 60 days of execution, unless a court order for visitation, custody or support has been entered in a court case in which the parent seeking to rescind was a party.

Genetic testing may be ordered to rebut a voluntary declaration of paternity, unless the court finds that the denial of an action to set aside the voluntary declaration of paternity is in the best interest of the child. A list of factors that the court uses to make that determination is set forth in Family Code section 7575 subd. (b)(1).
