HRS §584A-606
How a court decides who is a parent after assisted reproduction
Read the official text at capitol.hawaii.gov ↗This section lets a parent or the birth parent ask a court to officially decide who is a child's parent. If the court finds someone is a parent under the assisted reproduction rules, it must make that decision. If another person is also a parent, the court follows a separate rule.
