NEWMAN, Justice,
dissenting.
I join Justice Nigro’s Dissenting Opinion. I write separately only to emphasize nay view that the presumption of paternity is rebuttable and does not prohibit the court from ordering Mr. Behers to submit to paternity tests.1 Equally, the doctrine of estoppel should not bar these tests.

. As we set forth in Brinkley, the presumption does not attach because the marriage is not intact, and there is no marriage to preserve. Brinkley v. King, 549 Pa. 241, 250, 701 A.2d 176, 180 (1997).
