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

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
