State law
Paternity law in Ohio.
Ohio's paternity law is codified in Chapter 3111 of the Revised Code. The Ohio Child Support Enforcement Agency administers paternity testing in state-administered cases. Acknowledgments of Paternity filed with the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services establish legal paternity. Court-ordered genetic testing under §3111.09 must be performed by an accredited laboratory; AABB accreditation satisfies this requirement. Ohio permits paternity to be established or disestablished through court action, with specific procedures for administrative determinations through the CSEA.
