Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the Illinois Parentage  Act  of  1984.   Provides  that  a      
   complaint  or  motion  to  declare the non-existence of the parent and      
   child relationship may be made after  any  adjudication  of  paternity      
   under  a  law of this State or in an action in this State to enforce a      
   paternity judgment of any other jurisdiction  in  which  the  man  was      
   adjudicated  to  be  the  father  of  a  child  if,  as  a  result  of      
   deoxyribonucleic  acid  (DNA)  tests,  it  is  discovered that the man      
   adjudicated to be the father is not the natural father of  the  child.      
   Amends provisions of the Code of Civil Procedure regarding relief from      
   judgments  to  create  an exception for certain actions to declare the      
   non-existence of the parent and child relationship.
