§ 78B-15-508. Genetic testing when specimens not available.  


Latest version.
  • (1) Subject to Subsection (2), if a genetic-testing specimen is not available from a man who may be the father of a child, for good cause and under extraordinary circumstances the tribunal considers to be just, the tribunal may order the following individuals to submit specimens for genetic testing:
    (a) the parents of the man;
    (b) brothers and sisters of the man;
    (c) other children of the man and their mothers; and
    (d) other relatives of the man necessary to complete genetic testing.
    (2) Issuance of an order under this section requires a finding that a need for genetic testing outweighs the legitimate interests of the individual sought to be tested.
