What happens if the alleged or punitive father cannot be located or does not participate in any DNA Testing?
The Judge can consider all relevant information including testimony and affidavits; particularly if one parent fails to appear or submit to the testing, you can determine paternity in that action.
What does Home State Refer To?
The “Home state” refers to jurisdiction based on the child having been a resident of the state for at least six consecutive months immediately before the commencement of the suit. This becomes relevant in interstate child-custody disputes.
