In the event that a child is born to parents who are not officially married to each other, in the absence of a joint statement by his parents or a statement by the father on establishing paternity in the registry office, as well as in case of dad's evasion of parental responsibilities, the fact of paternity can be proved in court okay.
Instructions
Step 1
The mother of the baby, his guardian or trustee, as well as the person who is dependent on the child, can file a statement of claim in court for establishing paternity.
Step 2
To prove the fact of paternity, you can use absolutely any evidence: testimony of the parties and eyewitnesses, expert opinion, audio and video recordings, as well as material and written evidence proving that the alleged man is definitely the father of the child who was born.
Step 3
Keep in mind that it is not at all important for the court to what period of time the evidence you have collected for establishing paternity belongs.
Step 4
In the event that the potential father of the child denies the fact of his paternity even after the provision of substantial evidence on your part and on the part of witnesses, an expert examination is appointed by the court. Moreover, the court can make such a decision at any time of the process, at the request of the parties, the application of interested persons, the prosecutor, or on its own initiative.
Step 5
The definition of forensic examination can mean either gynecological, biological or genetic research.
Step 6
The most reliable way to prove paternity is through expensive genetic testing. The court, as a rule, appoints it in the event that simpler checks did not give an exact answer to the question: "Is the defendant the father of the baby?"
Step 7
It is possible to prove or disprove paternity with the help of answers to such questions as: "Is the alleged parent capable of childbearing at all?", "Did conception occur at the moment when the alleged father was absent from the city?" parents by his blood group?"
Step 8
If the alleged father refuses to conduct a forensic medical examination, the court has the right to recognize the defendant as the father of the child.
