I bet that it is true, because the law has most probably not caught up with the possibilities of genetic testing - or even blood type testing - and it will probably still assume in an uncontested situation that the child is the husband's. Why should it assume anything else? If your question is not just hypothetical, you should get an Arizona legal opinion, since even the most well-researched answer - whichever way it goes - can only result in your having to get a local opinion. |

Hi pelkeyrobyn! The Arizona Supreme Court has created the free booklet, "Things You Should Know About Establishing Paternity for Your Child in Arizona? Quoted from page 6: ?Under Arizona law, if the mother was married any time in the ten-month period before the baby is born or when the baby is born, the husband is presumed to be the child?s legal father. In this situation, the voluntary process to establish paternity for the biological father can only be used if the husband gives written consent to another man being declared as the father. If the husband will not consent, court action may be necessary to establish paternity. If the husband cannot be located after reasonable effort, paternity may be established without his consent.? You can download this booklet in PDF format here: http://www.supreme.state.az.us/dr/pdf/paternity.pdf I think this is the answer you are looking for. Hope it helps! |
