an acknowledgment of paternity signed or otherwise authenticated by another man is filed under Section 160.305;

the denial is in a record and is signed or otherwise authenticated under penalty of perjury; and

the presumed father has not previously:

acknowledged paternity of the child, unless the previous acknowledgment has been rescinded under Section 160.307 or successfully challenged under Section 160.308; or

been adjudicated to be the father of the child.
