A friend of mine just got served with a court ordered paternity test. He recalls that the woman on the papers was someone he had a very short relationship with back in 1998. The relations ended mutually and they went on with life. He has not spoken to this women since '98 and at no time over those years did she even mention a child let alone try to contact him. They haven't spoken. Now out of no where he is served with this...He doesn't deny that they had "relations" but he had no knowledge of a child ever.
He's in the military and currently pays child support for his 3 children from a previous marriage...
Does he have any rights? Will back support have to be paid for all those years if he is in fact the father? Is there anything to be said about her not mentioning anything all these years?? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
P.S. He lives in Washington state and she is living in Oregan
Sincerely,
