Who pays for the paternity test?
I guess that would depend upon who asked. If mom is saying that “dad” could not be the father, and ‘dad’ is agreeing…then it’s likley that both would have to split the costs – or if the state is demanding a test – they may have to foot hte bill – and may lay some of that on ‘dad’ if he comes up as the father….. If mom is insisting that ‘dad’ IS the father, and dad insists that he’s not – then she pays, and he may have to reimburse some of it if he’s found to be not the parent…. I guess – in most cases, that it depends upon who is alleging what, and what the final outcome of the test is………also could depend on the phase of the moon or the mood of the judge…..
