He wants to know if he can have a court order a paternity test, and how to go about making this happen.
I'm sure some of you people must know about these things.

Paternity testing question |

A guy I know thinks he has a kid with his ex, but he's never met the kid because the ex took off with the kid as soon as it was born.

Obviously a lawyer could help. But I think it is harder if he is not on the birth certificate.

Short answer: He's the father, he needs to pay up.

Is he paying Child Support? If so, I would guess that would give him some grounds for demanding the test.
If not, I'm not sure he has much chance. |

Ex-lovah or ex-wife?

It was an ex-fiancee. They broke up while she was pregnant. He's not on the birth certificate, and the ex hasn't contacted him for child support, even
though we've heard that she's pretty hard up for cash.
She posted a pic of the kid on Facebook, and it looks JUST like this guy's baby pictures. |

Are you sure it's a kid? It could be a big block of cheese.

Knowing this guy, the cheese theory might not be that far off.

Well, he may be a moron. He does realize that if she is receiving any kind of state assistance and he is legally determined to be the father, then the STATE
can go after him for support whether she wants it or not? Anyway, if the mom is willing to do the paternity test, they can take a family trip to the local
clinic and have cheek swabs done but they have to pay out of pocket. If mom ISN'T willing, then he has to go through the courts and have one ordered. At
that point, whether the child is his or not, the bill will go to the mother because she was the one refusing. I don't know what state you are in, so this
may vary slightly, but I imagine the process is similar.

Knowledge is very costly, until the kid is 18 at least.
