Mother has a Son.
Mother is unable to parent Son adequately.
The two most likely biological fathers undergo DNA paternity testing.
Mother’s parents, Grandparents, obtain sole custody of Son from his birth, reportedly by repeatedly testifying in Court that Son’s father is “unknown”.
But the testing shows that Father is Son’s father.
The California family court later rules that Father should have custody of Son.
But, three years have gone by and Son is still with Grandparents as a result of Grandparents’ initial alleged fraud.
Grandparents deny knowledge of Father’s paternity at that time, even though the test results were available online (by identification code rather than name). Their attorney maintains that they saw only the other possible father’s negative test results.
