If only that pesky Hurricane Katrina didn’t get in the way, Lil Wayne would’ve been forced to take a DNA test years ago to prove he fathered an 8-year-old boy … this according to the boy’s grandmother. After the kid was born in 2002, his family “tried multiple times to get a paternity test” against Wayne only to face unforeseen delays — such as a massive natural disaster … so says his grandmother’s attorney. According to the lawyer, the New Orleans court system moved at a ridiculously slow pace anyway — and after Katrina hit in 2005 … all sorts of court records pertaining to the case were destroyed … and their case was delayed by a matter of years. But as we previously reported, the grandmother finally obtained a new court order requiring Weezy to submit to a DNA test … but the rapper was holed up at Rikers Island when he got the news. The judge has since given Wayne until early-December to take the test … barring any more acts of God.
