(a) Subject to subsection (b), if a genetic-testing specimen is not available from a person who may be the parent of a child, for good cause and under circumstances the court considers to be just, the court may order the following individuals to submit specimens for genetic testing:

(1) the parents of the person;

(2) brothers and sisters of the person;

(3) other children of the person and the woman or person who gave birth to the person; and

(4) other relatives of the person necessary to complete genetic testing.
