“I live in Ohio and a few years ago I went to court for child support when the child turned nine years old and I asked the judge for paternity test, I was denied because the judge did not want to basturize the child. Is the judge allowed to deny paternity because of basturizing a child?”
Question: There aint no such a thing. However under certain circumstances, the Court will refuse to open a paternity case after if there is an irrefutable presumption of paternity.
