paternity; genetic testing; support obligation

Summary

The bill amends Arizona’s child‑support law to allow a person ordered to pay support under a presumption of paternity to petition the court for termination if DNA testing shows he is not the biological father or if paternity was established by fraud, duress, or mistake. It also sets rules for payment methods, security bonds, periodic support reviews, and treats voluntary relinquishment of custody as a possible defense to arrears enforcement.
