    Dna Testing
    Can you have someone take a DNA test while in Jail?

    Can you have someone sign a birth certificate while in Jail?

    Why not? Being in jail doesn't preclude signing legal documents or being tested for anything.

    How can I get that ordered? No one at the Jail seems to help me, and the father and I want to take one... so... do you know how to get that taken care of?

    Get in touch with a family law attorney. Assuming this is paternity issue.

    If not, then you should be in touch with the attorney that is handling the case.

    No one in the jail WILL help you. They have no reason to. You need to have an attorney get a court order to provide access to a testing firm.

    Probably. Check with an attorney to be certain. You may have to wait until they're released, then have them served with an order to take a DNA test.

    You cannot force someone to sign a birth certificate... period... but you can ask for an DNA test... in most prison systems... prisoners DNA are collected and placed in their record... contact a lawyer to get this done... are you looking for child support from a man in prison... rethink this action...

    You can do both. Not sure of the process to take as far as the DNA testing goes, but it can be done, I do believe it takes a court order though. As far as the birth papers go, I had a baby with a man who ended up in Fed prison (big mistake by the way)-we were not married, so I sent him affidavit papers and all he had to do was get it signed and notarized and sent it back to me and then I took care of the rest.
