A putative father who has a reasonable basis to question paternity can compel genetic testing, even if it is not in the child’s best interests, the New Jersey Supreme Court held on Wednesday.
The court discarded a 20-year-old standard that made the child’s interests the deciding factor, finding it could not be reconciled with intervening changes to the Parentage Act that allow denial of genetic testing only for good cause.
