§ 10-7700-508. Specimen from potential father unavailable – Additional sources of specimens for testing.  


Latest version.
  • A.  Subject to subsection B of this section, if a genetic-testing specimen is not available from a man who may be the father of a child, for good cause and under circumstances the court considers to be just, the court may order the following individuals to submit specimens for genetic testing:

    1.  The parents of the man;

    2.  Brothers and sisters of the man;

    3.  Other children of the man and their mothers;

    4.  Other relatives of the man necessary to complete genetic testing; and

    5.  Any other custodians of genetic material.

    B.  Issuance of an order under this section requires a finding that a need for genetic testing outweighs the legitimate interests of the individual sought to be tested.
