In Paternity Court season 6 episode 49, titled Daniels vs. Johnson, we follow a case of two former lovers – Kelsey Daniels and Devin Johnson. Kelsey has filed a paternity lawsuit against Devin seeking to establish the paternity of her daughter, 2-year-old Kaylee.
The episode begins with the judge, Judge Lauren Lake, introducing the participants and giving a brief background on the case. Kelsey Daniels is an 23-year-old exotic dancer residing in Atlanta, Georgia. She had been in a casual relationship with Devin Johnson, a 25-year-old aspiring rapper, for around 3 months. According to Kelsey, Devin is the father of her daughter, but he denies it, leading to the paternity lawsuit.
Before the actual court proceedings, the judge asks both parties about their relationship and how they met. Kelsey claims that they met through mutual friends at a night club, and had been seeing each other casually for around 3 months before she got pregnant. She claims that Devin was excited to hear about the pregnancy initially, but later disappeared and denied being the father when the baby was born.
Devin, on the other hand, claims that he and Kelsey had an on-and-off relationship, and he had always used protection during their sexual encounters. He also claims that he had doubts about the paternity of the baby since Kelsey was seeing other men at the same time.
The judge then moves on to the actual DNA test results, which have been conducted prior to the hearing. The results show that the probability of Devin being the father is 99.9%. Kelsey breaks down in tears, relieved that the long-standing issue has been settled finally.
The judge then goes on to talk about the importance of co-parenting, and how both parties need to keep the best interests of Kaylee in mind. She also offers legal advice to Kelsey regarding child support, and encourages Devin to be an active presence in his daughter's life.

It highlights the importance of communication and proper co-parenting, and serves as an informative resource for individuals seeking legal advice. The episode is a reminder that it is important to keep the best interests of the child in mind, irrespective of the outcome of the paternity test.
