  • A.  Under the Uniform Parentage Act, a man is rebuttably identified as the father of a child if the genetic testing complies with this Article and the results disclose that the man has:

    2.  A combined paternity index of at least 100 to 1.

    B.  A man identified under subsection A of this section as the father of the child may rebut the genetic testing results only by other genetic testing satisfying the requirements of this Article which:

    1.  Excludes the man as a genetic father of the child; or

    2.  Identifies another man as the possible father of the child.

    C.  Except as otherwise provided in Section 32 of this act, if more than one man is identified by genetic testing as the possible father of the child, the court shall order them to submit to further genetic testing to identify the genetic father.
