§ 160.510. IDENTICAL BROTHERS. (a) The court may order
genetic testing of a brother of a man identified as the father of a
child if the man is commonly believed to have an identical brother
and evidence suggests that the brother may be the genetic father of
the child.
(b) If each brother satisfies the requirements of Section
160.505 for being the identified father of the child and there is
not another identical brother being identified as the father of the
child, the court may rely on nongenetic evidence to adjudicate
which brother is the father of the child.
Added by Acts 2001, 77th Leg., ch. 821, § 1.01, eff. June 14,
2001.
