When a child is placed with a relative other than their other parent through the juvenile court or the Division of Child and Family Services during an abuse, neglect, or dependency case, this bill would require the state's Office of Recovery Services to automatically waive a parent's child support obligation, without needing a separate court order, if that parent's income qualifies under the state's low-income child support table or comes only from means-tested government assistance like Social Security income or cash aid. The bill would also change how a legal father's presumption of parentage can be challenged during divorce cases: a presumed father could rebut his presumed parentage by presenting genetic test results excluding him as the biological father, but if the birth mother disputes those results, the court would be required to order independent genetic testing before resolving the issue.
