2021 Code of Alabama|Title 26 - Infants and Incompetents.|Chapter 17 - Alabama Uniform Parentage Act.|Article 6 - Proceeding to Adjudicate Parentage.|Part 1 - Nature of Proceeding.|Section 26-17-608 - Estoppel to Deny Paternity.

Section 26-17-608Estoppel to deny paternity. (a) In a proceeding to adjudicate the parentage of a child having a presumed father or to challenge the paternity of a child having an acknowledged father, the court may deny a complaint seeking to disprove paternity if the court determines that: (1) the conduct of the mother or the presumed or acknowledged father estops that party from denying parentage; and (2) it would be inequitable to disprove the father-child relationship between the child and the presumed or acknowledged father. (b) When determining whether to deny the complaint, the court shall consider the following factors: (1) the length of time between the proceeding to adjudicate parentage and the time that the presumed or acknowledged father was placed on notice that he might not be the genetic father; (2) the length of time during which the presumed or acknowledged father has assumed the role of father of the child; (3) the facts surrounding the presumed or acknowledged father's discovery of his possible nonpaternity; (4) the nature of the relationship between the child and the presumed or acknowledged father; (5) the age of the child; (6) the harm that may result to the child if presumed or acknowledged paternity is successfully disproved; (7) the nature of the relationship between the child and any alleged father; (8) the extent to which the passage of time reduces the chances of establishing the paternity of another man and a child-support obligation in favor of the child; and (9) other factors that may affect the equities arising from the disruption of the father-child relationship between the child and the presumed or acknowledged father or the chance of other harm to the child. (c) In a proceeding involving the application of this section, a minor or incapacitated child must be represented by a guardian ad litem. (Act 2008-376, p. 666, §2.)

Section 26-17-621Admissibility of results of genetic testing; expenses.

The admissibility of the report is not affected by whether the testing was performed: (1) voluntarily or pursuant to an order of the court or the Alabama Department of Human Resources; or (2) before or after the commencement of the proceeding. (b) A party objecting to the results of genetic testing may call one or more genetic-testing experts to testify in person or by another method approved by the court.

(3) If the court finds that genetic testing under Section 26-17-505 neither identifies nor excludes a man as the father of a child, the results of genetic testing, and other evidence, are admissible to adjudicate the issue of paternity.
