Louisiana HB154 regulates paternity acknowledgment and child support for minors.
Louisiana HB154 amends existing law to provide guidance on deviations from child support guidelines and the establishment of paternity for minor parents. The bill specifies that unemancipated minors under 16 cannot enter into an acknowledgment of paternity, while those aged 16 or 17 can do so with judicial authorization. The court considers factors such as the minor's status, availability of other support, and the desirability of the minor's education continuation.
