DNA Testing Question

[KayHowe]

I live in Missouri, and am a result of an apparent one night stand. I have a question to see whether or not it would be possible to get my alleged father to take a paternity test. I am 23 now, but I need to know who my father is. I am not asking for any money, support or anything else, I just need to know for my own personal reasons. Is there a way to have him court ordered and required to take a paternity test?

Short answer: no. There is no reason for a judge to order this.

Nope. But you're free to ask someone nicely if they would volunteer.
