"If only that pesky &lt;strong&gt;Hurricane Katrina &lt;/strong&gt;didn't get in the way, &lt;a href=\"http://www.tmz.com/person/lil-wayne/\" target=\"_blank\"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Lil Wayne&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; 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.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=\"http://ll-media.tmz.com/2010/11/15/1115-lil-wayne-tmz-ex-credit.jpg\" alt=\"1115_lil_wayne_TMZ_EX\" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After the kid was born in 2002, his family &lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;\"tried multiple \ntimes to get a paternity test\" against Wayne only to face unforeseen delays -- such as a massive natural disaster ... so says his grandmother's attorney. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to the lawyer, the New Orleans court system moved at a ridiculously slow pace anyway --\n 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. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But as&lt;a href=\"http://www.tmz.com/2010/11/09/lil-wayne-paternity-prison-test-rikers-island-child-kid-son/\" target=\"_blank\"&gt;&lt;strong&gt; we previously reported&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, 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.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The judge has since given Wayne until early-December to take the test ... barring any more acts of God. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;!-- relatedlinks --&gt;&lt;a href=\"http://www.tmz.com/photos/2009/02/18/1696-whos-your-daddy\" target=\"_blank\"&gt;&lt;img src=\"http://ll-media.tmz.com/2010/11/10/1110-whos-your-daddy-footer-credit.jpg\" alt=\"1110_whos_your_daddy_footer\" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
