Description
The Attorney General of Texas appeals the trial courts order modifying a prior order of child support that decreases the monthly child support obligation owed by appellee, Roosevelt P., from $420 to zero. The Attorney General contends the trial court erred by admitting into evidence and considering paternity results when it modified Roosevelts child support obligation because: (1) collateral estoppel and res judicata barred the issue of paternity from being relitigated; (2) the Uniform Parentage Act precluded Roosevelt from rebutting his presumption of paternity; and (3) the paternity results failed to meet the admissibility requirements of the Texas Family Code. We reverse and remand.
