Iowa Supreme Court ends automatic presumption of husband as father
The Iowa Supreme Court ruled husbands are not automatically the father of a child born to a married woman. A husband who proves he is not the natural father can avoid paying child support. The decision criticizes the old English rooted rule as illogical and unjust and reverses a Scott County case where a husband was ordered to pay despite proof he was not the father.
