1. An action under this chapter is a civil action governed by the Nevada Rules of Civil Procedure. The mother of the child and the alleged father are competent to testify and may be compelled to testify. Subsections 3 and 4 of NRS 126.111 and NRS 126.121 and 126.131 apply.
2. In an action against an alleged father, evidence offered by the alleged father with respect to a man who is not subject to the jurisdiction of the court concerning that man’s sexual intercourse with the mother at or about the probable time of conception of the child is admissible in evidence only if the alleged father has undergone and made available to the court blood tests or tests for genetic identification, the results of which show a probability less than 99 percent that the alleged father is the father of the child.
3. The trial must be by the court without a jury.
