These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Section 1. R.S. 9:305 is hereby amended and reenacted to read as follows: § 305. Disavowal of paternity; ancillary to child support proceeding A. Notwithstanding the provisions of Civil Code Art. 189 and for the sole purpose of determining the proper pay- or in child support cases, if |4the husband, or legal father who is presumed to be the father of the child, erroneously believed, because of misrepresentation, fraud, or deception by the mother, that he was the father of the child, then the time for filing suit for disavowal of paternity shall be suspended during the period of such erroneous belief or for ten years, whichever ends first. B. No provision of this Section shall affect any child support payment or arrears paid, due, or owing prior to the filing of a disavowal action if an order of disavowal is subsequently obtained in such action.
