Does the father have to pay for the court ordered paternity test?

If the court has established a child support order, violating the order and refusing to pay child support carries penalties up to and including jail time. If the order was established before a paternity test can be taken, you must still pay the child support. If the paternity test reveals that you are not the father, you will be reimbursed for the child support that you paid.
