N.Y. Fam. Ct. Act § 521

Current through 2024 NY Law Chapters 1-49, 52, and 61-117
Section 521 - Venue

Proceedings to establish paternity may be originated in the county where the mother or child resides or is found or in the county where the putative father resides or is found. The fact that the child was born outside of the state of New York does not bar a proceeding to establish paternity in the county where the putative father resides or is found or in the county where the mother resides or the child is found.
