Re: Can an alleged father take a childs Mother to court to take a Dna genetic te
Your brother is entirely within his rights to
refuse to admit paternity without DNA test.
That test is normal and court will allow it
any time it is requested. My experience
is that when the mother will not submit to
test it is because she harbors some doubt
about the father and her other potential
fathers have less money that your
brother does.
A contract to avoid child support is not binding
and is not enforceable between the two parents
since NC law holds support from the two
biological parents is the child's right.
