Bill Summary

Amending Title 23 (Domestic Relations) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in support matters generally, providing for support of unborn child.

AI Summary

This bill amends Pennsylvania's domestic relations laws to provide for the support of an unborn child. It allows a biological mother to initiate a support action against the biological father for the unborn child, with the support obligations beginning on the date of the mother's first prenatal medical visit. The bill requires the biological mother's consent to establish the paternity of the unborn child, and it prohibits measures that could pose a risk of harm to the unborn child. The bill also allows for retroactive collection of support payments if paternity is established after the child's birth, and it provides definitions for key terms like "artificial insemination" and "unborn child." The bill takes effect 60 days after enactment.
