Description
At issue here is the timeliness of a superior court paternity action that conflicted with an adoption order issued by an Alaska tribal court five years previously. The superior court ruled that the tribal order was valid, that its issuance triggered Alaskas one-year time limit on challenges to adoption decrees, and that the paternity action was therefore time-barred. We agree that the paternity action is time-barred but reach this conclusion without deciding the validity of the tribal adoption order; we conclude that, whatever its validity when originally entered, the order became legally cognizable upon the States issuance of a new certificate of birth ratifying it as an adoption by tribal custom.
