Question

im going to paternity court on the 8th but my daughters mom is going on the 8th too she got a court date then but she never served me papers and i got a copy of the papers she filed and on the front of the papers it said father was never served which was me can she postpone the date now that i know and she cant serve me papers because i have to have a 30 day notice right so im planning to show up to court on the 8th and tell them i was never served which will say on the copies of the paperwork that got filed by her . how many days does she need to notice the court about postponing it ? or can she just drop the case and open a new how does this work ?



Answer

The court can reset the hearing for paternity determination. If you contest paternity a dna test will be performed and you will be responsible for at least 1/2 of the cost. Is the mom receiving welfare payments for the child? When welfare is received for a child, the county paying the welfare payments will file a paternity action and then collect all the welfare payments made. this will require you to pay all or a smaller amount depending on your ability to pay.

Mom can dismiss the paternity case, but there is no reason to believe that she will. Court ordered child support may well increase the cash available to her for living expenses.

Your approach will only delay the court determining whether you are the father.
