Paternity Cases in Massachusetts
A.R. v. C.R., 411 Mass. 570 (1992): Paternity questions between the parties should be dealt with in divorce proceedings. The husband was entitled to have his paternity of his wife's daughter tested. Where an adult voluntarily takes on support of a child, who is not his own without any duty to do so, generally should not be punished if he chooses to abandon that support.
