Abstract

The recent Legislative Decree 1377, which strengthens the comprehensive protection of children and adolescents, represents a state effort to prevail the right of the child born in marriage to enjoy an identity consistent with biological truth; Although this fact is relevant since it legitimizes the biological father to claim the paternity of the child of a married woman, the resolution of the specific case must be based on the best interests of the child.
