INTRODUCTION

Jeffrey Martin Bullock instituted a paternity action alleging that he was the father of a child born to J.B. After filing the action, but prior to the completion of genetic testing, Jeffrey died. The personal representative for Jeffrey's estate moved to revive the action. That motion was denied. The primary question presented by this appeal is whether an action for paternity survives the death of the putative father.
