§10-83.
   
   A. An individual who has been legally determined to be the father of a
   child pursuant to Section 70 of this title, or an individual who has
   been judicially or administratively determined to be the father of a
   child is liable for the support and education of the child to the same
   extent as the father of a child born in wedlock.
   
   B. 1. An action to enforce the obligation of support and education may
   be brought by the mother or custodian or guardian of the child, by the
   public authority chargeable with the support of the child, or by the
   child.
   
   2. An action to determine paternity and to enforce this obligation may
   be brought any time before the eighteenth birthday of the child. An
   action to establish paternity under this act shall be available for
   any child for whom a paternity action was brought and dismissed
   because of the application of a statute of limitations of less than
   eighteen (18) years.
   
   3. If paternity has been legally determined pursuant to Section 70 of
   this title, or judicially or administratively determined, an action to
   enforce this obligation of support may be brought within the time
   periods specified by paragraph 7 of Section 95 of Title 12 of the
   Oklahoma Statutes.
   
   4. The father's obligation to support is terminated if the child is
   adopted.
   
   5. The court may order the payments made to the mother or custodian or
   guardian of the child, or to some other person, corporation or agency
   to administer under the supervision of the court.
   
   C. 1. An individual who has been legally determined to be the father
   of a child pursuant to Section 70 of this title, or an individual who
   has been judicially or administratively determined to be the father of
   a child shall be ordered to pay all or a portion of the costs of the
   birth and the reasonable expenses of providing for the child, provided
   that liability for support provided before the determination of
   paternity shall be imposed for five (5) years preceding the filing of
   the action.
   
   2. Copies of bills for pregnancy, child birth, and genetic testing are
   admissible as evidence without requiring third-party foundation
   testimony, and shall constitute prima facie evidence of amounts
   incurred for such services or for genetic testing on behalf of the
   child.
   
   D. The amount of child support and other support including amounts
   provided for in subsection C of this section shall be ordered and
   reviewed in accordance with the child support guidelines provided in
   Section 118 of Title 43 of the Oklahoma Statutes.
   
   E. 1. When a civil or administrative action is filed to determine
   paternity of a minor child, an interested party may request the court
   to enter a temporary order for support of the child pending a final
   determination of paternity. The application for temporary support
   shall set forth facts supporting the application and shall be verified
   by the party or entity seeking the order. The application and notice
   of hearing shall be served as in other civil cases.
   
   2. After service of the application and opportunity for hearing, the
   court shall enter a temporary order for support if the court finds
   there is clear and convincing evidence of paternity, including, but
   not limited to:
   
   a. a genetic test which establishes a rebuttable or conclusive
   presumption of paternity pursuant to Section 504 of Title 10 of the
   Oklahoma Statutes,
   
   b. a notarized written statement acknowledging paternity of the child
   executed by the putative father,
   
   c. a presumption of paternity pursuant to Section 2 of this title, or
   
   d. other evidence which establishes a high probability of paternity.
   
   3. Temporary orders for support shall be established in accordance
   with the child support guidelines pursuant to Section 118 of Title 43
   of the Oklahoma Statutes. A temporary support order terminates when a
   final judgment is entered which establishes support or when the action
   is dismissed. A temporary support order shall not be retroactively
   modified, but it may be modified prospectively before final judgment
   upon motion of an interested party and a showing of facts supporting a
   modification.
