The case of Paul v. Davis, 424 U.S. 693 (1976) examines a case of defamation of character by the defendant in which the accused was said to have destroyed Mr. Davis’s name and character by unlawfully soliciting that he was a prior shoplifter to the community when Mr. Davis had in fact been cleared of the charges prior to the solicitation.

Judge Beistline found that the superior court in Bethel had effectively disestablished Romer's paternity in May 1996 when it declared that R.M. was not a child of the Romers' marriage.
