Me. Rev. Stat. tit. 19-A, § 1554 (2025)
The father's liabilities for past education and support are limited to the 6-year period preceding the commencement of an action.
A complainant may commence an action at any time prior to the child's 18th birthday. Notwithstanding the effective date of this paragraph, an action may be commenced for the benefit of a child whose paternity has not been established or to establish paternity of a child for whom an action had been commenced but dismissed because a statute of limitations of less than 18 years was then in effect.
