§ 125C.210. Child conceived as result of sexual assault: Rights of natural father convicted of sexual assault; rights when father is spouse of victim; rebuttable presumption upon divorce
1. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 2, if a child is conceived as the result
of a sexual assault and the person convicted of the sexual assault is the natural
father of the child, the person has no right to custody of or visitation with the
child unless the natural mother or legal guardian consents thereto and it is in the
best interest of the child. 2. The provisions of subsection 1 do not apply if the person convicted of the sexual
assault is the spouse of the victim at the time of the sexual assault. If the persons later divorce, the conviction of sexual assault creates a rebuttable
presumption that sole or joint custody of the child by the perpetrator of the sexual
assault is not in the best interest of the child. The court shall set forth findings that any custody or visitation arrangement ordered
by the court adequately protects the child and the victim of the sexual assault.
