As far as I know, the law in US federal states and Western European countries is usually that a husband may not have a paternity test done on the child or children unless the wife agrees to it in writing and the family court permits it (in case of a divorce).
This is incorrect, at least in the US. The source of the confusion may be that there's a difference for purely informational paternity tests and forensic tests that have strict protocols and can be used as evidence in court. The latter are only done, for obvious reasons, if there are actually court proceedings, and require a court order.
yeah its not "paternity tests are not allowed" and more "there is absolutely zero chain of custody on this test and we are not accepting it as legal evidence by itself" although obviously it becomes much easier to compel a legally valid paternity test if you have a failed one.
Respectfully, if your trying to out ethno-racial histography SecureSignals I suspect that's a losing battle.
