Can I be jailed for not complying to paternity test suit?
I live in Ma. And my boyfriend walked out on his 1 week old child. He never signed the birth certificate because he is insisting on a paternity test. I refuse to give consent for a test because I don't want him to be a part of our child's life if he is only going to be there part time. I have raised one child with a part time father for seven years and it was very hard on that child emotionally. I don't want to put this child through the same. I have told the father that the child is not his and that I don't know who is. He has sued me to force the dna test but it has not gone to court yet. If I do not comply if a judgement decrees it, can I be jailed?
