acknowledgment of paternity

• Clark v. Malicote, (Ohio 2011)

Children out-of-wedlock – Acknowledgment of paternity – Legal custody – Uniform Parentage Act – The juvenile court properly dismissed the biological father's motion to intervene in the acknowledged father's legal custody action. It is not proper for the biological father to intervene under the current procedural posture to pursue his parental rights. Rather, the biological father could file his own paternity action and legal custody action.

• Order of Filiation and Support Upheld by Appellate Division, Fourth Department

Where the petitioner sought to vacate an order of filiation and support entered in 1994 based on alleged newly discovered evidence disputing paternity, the evidence was not sufficient to indicate there would have been a different result in the filiation proceeding. Reviewing the July 21, 2003 decision of Monroe County Family Court Judge Gail A. Donofrio in Matter of Mark D. v. Marion M., the Appellate Division, Fourth Department unanimously affirmed the order dismissing the proceeding to vacate an acknowledgment of paternity and order of filiation and support.
