Introduced by Sen. Michelle McManus (R) on May 16, 2007, to establish in law the circumstances under which a putative father may sue to establish the paternity of a child born to a married woman. This would limit the ability of a putative father to bring a paternity suit if the mother had been married (to someone else) at any time between conception and the birth of the child, unless certain specific provisions spelled out in the bill applied and are met.
Referred to the Senate Families and Human Services Committee on May 16, 2007.
1) I live with "understanding" [by Podolak on October 29, 2008] I know full well the state of the current law. My daughter and I spent 4 years together before we were separated by this law. A few things didn't go like her mother wished so she hired a new lawyer. The new guy also understood the current law and instructed her to use this law to remove me from the picture. Before making the final decision, the judge in the case stated he was sickened by the decision but his hands were tied by this law. This took place over two years ago. Have you seen your kids in the last two years? Reply

3) wrong [by Anonymous Citizen on September 30, 2008] All these comments are ridiculous. None of the posters understand the current state of the law or the potential consequences of the proposed bill. Reply
