If court ordered can you refuse to take a paternity test if you were not informed of your right to refuse one?

The only paternity test that is valid in court is one ordered by a judge. If this test is being done to determine paternity, it must be conducted at a facility approved by the court and in a manner approved by the court. If the court ordered him to a paternity test, the court will tell him which facilities are on the list. Contact the court.

Only a court can order a paternity test. The individual must petition the court first. The court will order the test, which is done under very specific conditions to assure that the right individuals are tested. The mother of a child has no obligation to subject a child to any testing simply based on the request of another person. When the court orders the test, the mother must then comply. The only paternity test a mother must submit the child for is one ordered by a judge. A court-ordered paternity test must be done under specific conditions to assure that the swabs are indeed from the individuals in question and that the results are processed by a lab certified by the courts. The father must petition the court for the test. There will be a hearing and the mother (or guardian) of the child will be instructed of the court order and told how to proceed.

How can one legally challenge or petition paternity?
In order to legally challenge paternity, a civil suit must be filed in Family Court.

In the event that paternity is confirmed, the father will then likely be ordered to pay child support and issues regarding custody and/or visitation will be addressed.

Is it legal for a women to take child support from two men for one child in kentucky?
If she does I'm sure it is not court ordered and then they are willingly just giving money away. They should ask for a DNA test both of them and if she does not want to they can get a court order. The court requires a DNA test to prove paternity when deciding child support so the biological father is the one paying it. If married it can also be the husband that is considered the legal father. Is it legal to give your money away to whoever you want? Yes it is. Is it legal to scam people into giving you money? No it is not. But this could easily be fixed with a simple DNA test and if not married they should have done this when the baby was born. As soon as you have proved paternity you can also get court ordered visitation or custody.
