Court Orders DNA Test in Paternity Case
Posted on Jul 4, 2010 1:40pm PDT
A man will be taking a DNA test to prove that he is not the father of a boy so that he can stop paying child support. The man had a vasectomy in 1994 and met a woman whom he later married in 2000. The woman already had her son at the time, but the man agreed to be recorded as the father in order to meet U.S. immigration requirements. After they divorced, he believed that he should not be financially responsible for the boy, but the ex-wife still wanted the financial support and did not want to tell her son.
