Section 26-17-621 - Admissibility of Results of Genetic Testing; Expenses.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (c), a record of a genetic-testing expert is admissible as evidence of the truth of the facts asserted in the report unless a party objects in writing to its admission within 14 days after its receipt by the objecting party and cites specific grounds for exclusion.
