Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS)

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

    Sec. 303. Denial of parentage. A presumed parent may sign a denial of parentage. The denial is valid only if:
        (a) a voluntary acknowledgment described in Section
    
301 of this Act signed, or otherwise authenticated, by a man is filed pursuant to Section 305 of this Act;
        (b) the denial is in a record, and is signed, or
    
otherwise authenticated, under penalty of perjury; and
        (c) the presumed parent has not previously:
            (1) acknowledged his parentage, unless the
        
previous voluntary acknowledgment has been rescinded under Section 307 of this Act or successfully challenged under Section 308 of this Act; or
