    No and no. You can't sign off your rights and you can't refuse a court ordered paternity test.

    If a parent goes after child support for someone not acknowledging paternity, the state asks for a paternity test to confirm paternity. This is more for your protection than anything else. If you refuse, they may just assume you are the father.

    If you have not being paying support under a court order, then the state may assume you have never paid support.
