Do I Have to Submit to DNA Testing

My question involves paternity law for the State of: Mississippi.

My son was born while I was still married to my ex-husband. According to state law, my ex-husband is my son's legal father even though he is not his child biologically. He is listed as the father on my son's birth certificate.

My question: do I have to submit to DNA testing to establish that my ex is NOT my son's father? I've been given to believe that I do not, although I have not yet spoken with an attorney.

Any advice would be appreciated. :)

If the biological father petitions the court and the court allows the petition to go ahead, you will have to submit the child for DNA testing.

In your divorce judgment, is your ex- recognized as the father of the child or did the judgment disestablish his paternity?
