The court dismissed the appeal regarding a claim for paternity recognition filed after the statutory limitation period expired. The plaintiff sought to establish paternity under the Paternity Act, but the claim was submitted more than five years after the Act's effective date in October 1976. The court ruled that the procedural deadline for filing such claims had lapsed, rendering the action inadmissible regardless of the merits.
