Child support just, court says

Man ordered to pay for boy he fathered at 14 with older woman
February 21, 2004






BY DAWSON BELL
FREE PRESS STAFF WRITER




A man who had sex with a married woman when he was 14 owes child support for
their now teenage son, even though under state law, the sex act was likely a
crime, the Michigan Court of Appeals ruled in a decision released Friday.

The case involves a Macomb County woman and a former Detroit-area man, now
29, and their son. The court ruled that "the purpose of child support is to
provide for the needs of the child; it is awarded without regard to the
fault of either of the parents."

The unanimous three-judge panel reversed a ruling by a Macomb County judge,
who had found that ordering child support would be unjust.

The case files were suppressed on the circuit and appellate levels, and all
of the participants either could not be reached or declined to discuss the
case Friday.

The case was precipitated in 2000, according to the panel's decision, when
the mother divorced and a blood test determined that her ex-husband was not
the child's father.

The father, who was 14 at the time his son was conceived, said he had no
knowledge of the child until he was notified by the court.He said forcing
him to pay child support would reward the perpetrator of the crime against
him.

The appeals court rejected that claim and said the payments are not for the
mother, but to support the needs of the child, which is justified as an
"important public policy."

Last week, the state Court of Appeals upheld a lower court's ruling that a
western Michigan man owes child support to a 21-year-old daughter he has
never met and, until four years ago, did not know he had fathered.

Doin' 2 guys at about the same time, eh? And one of them was grossly
underage? Not relevant to CS, but interesting nonetheless.

The one **RIGHT** thing the court did here was not saddle the
ex-husband/non-father with unjust CS.

The father, who was 14 at the time his son was conceived, said he had
no knowledge of the child until he was notified by the court.He said
forcing him to pay child support would reward the perpetrator of the
crime against him.


How old was the mother at the time? The story doesn't say. He may
have been 14, but I doubt he was a "victim". Chances are he knew damn
well what he was doing. Having said that, if the mother never told
him, and she even led the ex-husband to believe that it was his, the
real father should not be expected to pay a dime for any of that time.
Maybe from the time he was told until ahe turns 18, but not before that.

The appeals court rejected that claim and said the payments are not
for the mother, but to support the needs of the child, which is

Last week, the state Court of Appeals upheld a lower court's ruling

Is it a teenage son, as mentioned near the beginning, or a 21 year old
daughter? Oh, wait, different cases. Yes, I remember reading about
the girl, too, several days ago. The writer did not make that very
clear.

The man ought to be able to file a "Child Rape" lawsuit against the
woman in civil court and get a judgement against her for all his
expenses including all his child support payments.

Wouldn't it be more logical to order him to repay the marital "father"
who probably was the one who actually provided the financial support for
the "son"? The only way this would not be the only "fair" scenario
would be if "mommy" had been the breadwinner ahd the cuckolded husband
had been a SAH. Most likely, mommy is NOT being reimbursed for her
expenses in raising the child...she is being rewarded for having a
uterus...that cavernous expanse which is otherwise known as a gold mine.
