(1)The tribunal shall order additional genetic testing upon the request of a party who contests the result of the original testing.

(3)If the tribunal orders a second genetic test in accordance with this section, the additional testing must be completed within 45 days of the tribunal's order or the requesting party's objection to the first test will be automatically denied.
