Section 26-17-608 Estoppel to deny paternity. (a) In a proceeding to adjudicate the parentage
of a child having a presumed father or to challenge the paternity of a child having an acknowledged
father, the court may deny a complaint seeking to disprove paternity if the court determines
that: (1) the conduct of the mother or the presumed or acknowledged father estops that party
from denying parentage; and (2) it would be inequitable to disprove the father-child relationship
between the child and the presumed or acknowledged father. (b) When determining whether to
deny the complaint, the court shall consider the following factors: (1) the length of time
between the proceeding to adjudicate parentage and the time that the presumed or acknowledged
father was placed on notice that he might not be the genetic father; (2) the length of time
during which the presumed or acknowledged father has assumed the role of father of the child;
(3) the facts surrounding the presumed or acknowledged...

Section 26-23E-10 Paternity inquiries of pregnant minor child; reporting requirements. (a)
Any minor child under the age of 16 seeking an abortion from an abortion or reproductive health
care facility shall be asked by the physician performing the abortion or his or her agent
to state the name and age of the individual who is believed to be the father of the unborn
child. While the minor child may refuse to provide the father's name and age, she should be
encouraged to do so by the physician or agent consistent with the physician's legal obligation
to reduce the incidence of child abuse when there is reason to suspect that it has occurred.
(b) In addition to any other abuse reporting requirements that may apply to the staff of an
abortion or reproductive health center, if the reported age of the father is two or more years
greater than the age of the minor child, the facility shall report the names of the pregnant
minor child and the father to both local law enforcement and the county...

Section 26-17-631 Rules for adjudication of paternity. The court shall apply the following
rules to adjudicate the paternity of a child: (1) The paternity of a child having a presumed,
acknowledged, or adjudicated father may be disproved only by admissible results of genetic
testing excluding that man as the father of the child or identifying another man as the father
of the child. (2) Unless the results of genetic testing are admitted to rebut other results
of genetic testing, a man identified as the father of a child under Section 26-17-505 must
be adjudicated the father of the child. (3) If the court finds that genetic testing under
Section 26-17-505 neither identifies nor excludes a man as the father of a child, the results
of genetic testing, and other evidence, are admissible to adjudicate the issue of paternity.
