1Opinion of the Court
Parks, J.:
This is an appeal from an order dismissing plaintiffs’ action to establish paternity and obtain child support filed pursuant to K.S.A. 1979 Supp. 39-755.
Ta-Talinda was born October 27, 1974; however, this suit brought by her mother and the State of Kansas was not filed until March 30, 1977. In a letter decision the court dismissed the action, holding (1) the mother had failed to bring a paternity action within the one-year statute of limitations (K.S.A. 38-1104) and (2) the mother had no existing support rights at the date of the assignment. Plaintiff appeals and we reverse.
