Section1529.Institution of an action for legitimation of a child can take place only in the following events:

(1)when the mother was raped, carried off, or unlawfully detained or restrained during the period in which she could get pregnant;

(2)when the mother was sexually abducted or deceived into having sexual intercourse during the period in which she could get pregnant, provided that, in the latter event, written evidence made by the father is required;

(3)when a document from the father clearly shows that the child is his child;

(4)when the father and mother openly cohabited during the period in which she could get pregnant;

(5)when there is a circumstance in which the state of being a legitimate child has been generally known all along.

If it appears that the mother had sexual intercourse with another man during the pregnancy period or is generally known to be sexually promiscuous, or if the man cannot be the father of the child, the action shall be dismissed.
