Legal Confusion Raises Questions on Paternity Test Kits

Paternity Test Results May Not Be Admissible In Your State

An interesting case  where local state laws have not kept pace with advances in technology.  A paternity test reveals a husband is not the father of the child he has raised as his own but he still has to pay child support to his ex-wife and the real father of “his” daughter because the law does not recognize DNA testing.

The takeaway from all this?  Before you spend upwards of $400 on a home paternity test kit, make sure the laws in your state allow such evidence in court.
