Rule 5 Paternity
Currentness
501 Motion Practice. All motions in Paternity cases shall be filed and noticed for a hearing in accordance with RULE 201 herein.
502 Reopening Fee. Pursuant to FCRPP 14(1), a $50.00 reopening fee for cases that have been inactive for six months on a particular issue shall not be paid for motions in cases brought pursuant to Title IV-D of the Social Security Act for child support modification or enforcement. However, where an action is initiated pursuant to Title IV-D but subsequent motions regarding child support, custody or visitation are brought by a private attorney or are filed by a party pro se, rather than by Title IV-D counsel, the fee shall be charged unless the motion is brought in forma pauperis.

A. An attorney seeking permission to review and copy a paternity case file must first file a Notice of representation signed by a party with a notarized release authorizing that attorney to inspect the parties' paternity case file for reasons relating to representation in that action of a party thereto. Regardless of the subsequent representation or non-representation of the party, any information contained in such file is confidential and subject to the attorney-client privilege.
B. Either party to a paternity action shall be permitted to inspect the order entered in the action to which he is a party.
C. The Clerk's office shall permit any County Attorney involved in the particular case, and attorneys and Guardians Ad Litem who are representing incarcerated parents in paternity cases to have access to the records of these action.
