Identifying Dad Through DNA Paternity Testing?
Perhaps you want to change a child’s name on a birth certificate and need to prove who the father is. Or, perhaps you want to collect child support from the father and need to prove he is a biological parent. A few decades ago it might have been impossible to identify a parent. Now, however, DNA testing can be used to find out if a man could be the father to a child. Every child receives half of his or her DNA from each parent. The DNA can be rearranged and make a unique combination, but still half came from each parent. Comparing the DNA of a child to the DNA of a man (DNA Paternity Testing) can reveal if that man could be the child’s father. If there are enough DNA sequences that match, the man is said to be the father with a certain amount of probability. Many testing companies will guarantee a 99% or higher probability that a man is the father of a child. This is sufficient to satisfy any court that needs proof of paternity. If there are not enough matches the test will conclude that the man is definitely not father of the child. Obtaining the DNA for a test is simple: a cheek swab collects cells off the cheeks of the man, woman, and child. The DNA from the mother is not required, but is collected whenever possible. These cheek swabs are usually performed in facilities where the collection process is monitored and documented so the results can be used for legal purposes. If a family wants to have a DNA Paternity Test done, but does not need it for legal reasons, many companies will send a home test kit where the family can collect the DNA and return it for testing. Home kits usually cost around $300 and legal tests are usually done for about $500. DNA Paternity Tests are available for unborn children (prenatal tests), but because the baby is inside a woman’s womb the DNA must be obtained by an OB-GYN (possibly the woman’s doctor) and the cost is usually much more. If the family can wait until birth, DNA can be taken from cells in the umbilical cord at birth.
How can DNA fingerprinting establish paternity?
The DNA fingerprint of the father is compared with that of the child. If he is the true father, half of the bands on the child's DNA fingerprint will match with the father's, because the father provides half of the child's DNA.
Does a man have to pay child support if the child isn't his and the DNA is still in process?
No, if the man in question is not willing to pay without DNA proof, then lawfully he does not have to pay child support. Child support is for the actual father to pay to support his child, but, if the child is not his there is no need. That's why it's called CHILD support.AnswerContrary to the first answer, a man cannot make such decisions on his own if there is any outstanding court order. If the DNA testing is still in process then he has not yet been eliminated as the biological father. The results of the DNA test will be the deciding factor.If there is a child support order in place and the man has decided to question his paternity then he must follow the court order until a temporary order is issued or until the matter is settled and it has been determined he is not the father. In that case, he will need to petition the court to terminate the prior child support order.
Is it legal for a judge in pinellas Florida to order child support for a child that is not biological a man child?
Assuming you mean, "not the man's biological child," - the judge must first determine that the man is the child's father by, e.g., marriage to the mother at time of conception/birth, adoption, DNA testing, acknowledgment of paternity, etc.
Can a man be made to do a DNA test without mom's consent if the child is 18 or older?
Yes. This would be between 2 adults since the child is now grown. She is in charge of her own DNA and does not need mother's permission.
