Under Wisconsin law, the acknowledgment of paternity acts as a judgment of paternity. The only thing to determine after that are "terms" concerning the child, child custody, placement, custody, child support. Your ex boyfriend would be required, in my opinion, to file a motion to reopen the "judgment" (acknowledgment of paterntiy) under s. 806.07 for good cause, and convince the court that there is some reasonable doubt that your current boyfriend is the biolgoical father of the child. If you had sexual intercourse with both during the possible period of conception, that may give rise for the court to have concerns who the father may be. If the court were to grant such a motion for relief under s. 806.07, I could see at that point, the court ordering DNA testing for all of you and the child to derermine parentage.
