How Do You Challenge Mistaken Paternity?

In 2011, the Texas Legislature passed laws to address the issue of “mistaken paternity.” With this law, a man who has been mistakenly identified as the father of a child can file a lawsuit to challenge a prior order establishing paternity. “Mistaken paternity” describes a situation where a man has either signed an acknowledgment of paternity or has been determined by court order to be the father of a child, but the man is not actually the child’s biological father and did not know at the time that he was not the biological father.
