Makes various changes relating to parentage. (BDR 11-140)
This bill modernizes Nevada's parentage laws by adopting key provisions of the Uniform Parentage Act. It establishes a no-fee process for parents to formally acknowledge or deny their relationship with a child and sets clear rules for genetic testing in parentage disputes. The law allows courts to recognize non-biological parents who have raised a child as their own and to permit children to have more than two legal parents in specific cases. It also ensures that a woman carrying a pregnancy for another person (a gestational carrier) retains full authority over health care decisions during the pregnancy.
