CERTIFICATION

I understand that the information I have provided is confidential and is intended for the use of the Elkhart County Prosecuting Attorney in pursuing legal action on behalf of my child. I also understand that further action is completely within the discretion of the Prosecuting Attorney.

I further understand that I must cooperate with the Prosecuting Attorney in establishing the paternity of my child. I realize that cooperation includes answering questions fully and truthfully about possible fathers when asked, attending court proceedings when required, and submitting to DNA testing when ordered by the Court.

I further realize that my failure to provide complete and truthful answers in this questionnaire may result in perjury charges being filed against me and/or that I may be removed from the Department of Child and Services or the Title IV-D Program for failing to cooperate with the Prosecuting Attorney.
