14-2-705. Genetic testing results; rebuttal.
(a) Under this act, a man is rebuttably identified as the father of a child if the genetic testing complies with this article and the results disclose that:

(ii) A combined paternity index of at least one hundred (100) to one (1).
(b) A man identified under subsection (a) of this section as the father of the child may rebut the genetic testing results only by other genetic testing satisfying the requirements of this article which:

(ii) Identifies another man as the possible father of the child.
(c) Except as otherwise provided in W.S. 14-2-710, if more than one (1) man is identified by genetic testing as the possible father of the child, the court shall order them to submit to further genetic testing to identify the genetic father.
