Yes, it is legal, and even encouraged. However, this is only if the mother was not married at the time of conception or delivery. Once on a birth certificate only a legal defect when placing them on the certificate--like being married to someone else--will create a chance to correct an error.

How about a DNA test? File a motion. If you lose, you lose. William S. Stern
