§ 581-301 Scope of article

Here's a plain English summary:

This part of the law only applies to certain situations involving how a child was conceived, specifically through methods other than sexual intercourse (like assisted reproduction or similar means). If a child was conceived through sexual intercourse, the rules in this article don't apply to that situation at all.

In simple terms, this rule sets a boundary. It tells you that these particular legal rules are meant for specific cases involving alternative methods of conception. If your case involves a child conceived the traditional way, you'll need to look at other parts of the law to find the rules that apply to you.
