The parent, even if a minor, in respect of whom filiation is established has, during the minority of the child, sole standing to bring an action to establish maternity or paternity.
If no parent-child relationship is established or if that parent is deceased or unable to express his or her will, the action shall be brought by the guardian in accordance with the provisions of the second paragraph of Article 408.
The action is brought against the alleged parent or his heirs. If there are no heirs or if they have renounced the succession, it is directed against the State. The renouncing heirs are called to the proceedings to assert their rights.
