Girard v. Wagenmaker

Michigan Supreme Court

Decided May 7, 1991No. 85662, (Calendar No. 4)PublishedCited by 62 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtBrickley, J.

The Court granted leave in this case to resolve two issues.1 The first issue is whether the plaintiff, a putative father, has standing to bring an action under the Paternity Act as it existed in 1985, MCL 722.711-722.730; MSA 25.491-25.510, to determine the paternity of a child born while the mother was legally married to another man.2 A second and similar issue to be decided if we find the Paternity Act unavailing to the plaintiff is whether a putative father has standing to bring the same action under the Child Custody Act, MCL 722.21-722.28; MSA 25.312(1)-25.312(8).3
