In this case of cuckoldry there are three parties involved: the husband, the wife, and the man who is not the husband. The victim is the husband, while the perpetrator is the wife; in the case of the other man, being deemed victim/perpetrator depends on whether or not he knew the woman was married or not. The husband is the victim from the beginning due to his wife’s infidelity. The wife is the perpetrator from the beginning because she willfully slept with another man knowing she was married. The other man could be a victim if he had no knowledge the woman was married, or a perpetrator if he had knowledge the woman was married. The first step in remedying the situation is to conduct a paternity test on the child to see who the true father is. We do not know if the woman was sleeping with either or both men during the same time period, and must establish whom the father is to move forward. Once the DNA test has finished and the father is identified, there are two different ways this situation goes. If the husband is the father, the child is his responsibility and he is required to pay for it. However, due to his wife’s infidelity, he is given the option to divorce his wife without having to divvy up assets, pay …show more content…
If the husband does not choose divorce, the man is still obligated to pay child support. If the husband does want a divorce, and the man knew the woman was married, he is also responsible for the divorce expenses along with the woman. If the woman and man decide to stay together after the woman’s divorce, they are both responsible for the care of the child. If the man and woman do not remain together after the woman’s divorce, again, custody would initially be given to the father due to the woman’s infidelity making her an unfit parent. If the man does not want custody of the child, it will remain with the woman and he will be responsible for child
Defendant has paid mortgages, taxes and provided health insurance coverages for the entire family, which is the major financial burden to Defendant; therefore, Defendant should not be required to pay for children support.
How is the child support amount calculated? The Child Support Guidelines are administered by the States and they vary from one state to another. The Guidelines are a little murky if one (or both) of the spouses are independent business owners that have control over their income. In such cases, a financial or tax professional will be able to help to figure out the real potential income of both spouses. Is there a need to go to court? If you are unable to reach an agreement, then going to court is necessary. A judge will hear the case once a court date has been set. In the USA, less than 2% of divorce cases ever proceed to trial. What is a QDRO and do I actually require one? A Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO) is an official document that
In cases of marital dissolution, the mother and father bear equal weight in the court’s decisions. Neither party enters the process with a leg up on the other simply based on gender. Also, this applies regardless of the age or sex of the child. In other words, both mothers and fathers are expected to be capable parents and are given the same consideration in proceedings.
If the divorced couple had children, they would automatically be man’s property and the decision would be left unto him if the mother could see them or not. Although, the Equity Law was
Mulla uses a variety of victims’ narratives, forensic nurses’ statements, and detectives and attorneys, along with research studies to strength her study on the different topics of forensic sexual assault intervention. Each chapter of this book contains a different topic that contextualizes the overall topic of medico-legal intervention in sexual assault. These topics include DNA, time, emotions, reproduction and production, technology, documentation, home and healing, and patient compliance. Each one of the topic alludes to how this medico-legal intervention contributes to a victim undergoing more “violence” that is in the form of “care”. Using the narratives of victims, research about sexual violence, and personal observations in each of
In contrast, the case In Re Southard, 365 P.3d 1089 (2015), the court found that the nonparent should have custody of the child due to a child-parent relationship. In this case, the mother had married two men Southard and Larkins twice. Southard, 365 P.3d at 1092. The result of these multiple unions was three children. Southard, 365 P.3d at 1092. At the end the mother’s fourth marriage with Southard, he received custody of all three children including AR who was not Southard’s biological child, but Larkins. Id. The mother petitioned for custody, but custody was denied. Id. The court found that Southard had physical custody of AR for a year and had developed a child-parent relationship. Id. The court also decided that the time Southard spent with AR were not caused by custodial inference, but by the marriage of the mother and Southard. Id. at 105.
If you want support for your child through college or until he or she reaches the age of 21 years old, then this can be done. You will have to cooperate with your spouse, of course, and have an agreement in writing. Also, California divorce law states that if your child is disabled or if for whatever reason is unable to work, then child support can be
Which means even if the noncustodial parents live in another State he can still be tracked down for support. Employers are vital to the child support program. Child support can be collected through direct wage withholding. This will also implement the employer to enroll children in health insurance, and remit child support o the State Disbursement Unit. Intercepting state and federal tax return, workers compensation, and unemployment payments is another action that can be taken to obtain support. Both the custody and noncustodial parent will be sent letter informing of such action. In some cases if support is left unpaid there will be a order to report back to court where the noncustodial parent may be given the option to go pay amount due or ordered to jail. If the noncustodial parent does not show up for court the judge will issue a warrant. In most cases passports and driver’s license have even been revoked for not paying order child support. I have seen the judge go as far as suspending certain business
It isn’t a family, it’s a felony. Parents who are in custody battles use cases of abuse and neglect to win, so why are rape custody cases so different? There are 19 states that automatically terminate parental rights to attackers that impregnated woman through rape. But what happens if your attacker wasn’t convicted? What if he was found not guilty? Then you have to provide “clear and convincing evidence” that the child was conceived through rape. Does that even make sense? Shouldn’t it be common sense to take away any sort of right to seeing the child if he/she was conceived through forced sex? Things like this make it that much harder for victims to come forward about their assault.

Scarlett Morrison decides that the best way to get back into the romantic marriage that her and Kevin Morrison had when they first were married is to book a surprise weekend in a hotel that she has set up with candles and wine for the both of them.
Reynolds (2004) stated that five out of every six custodial parents are mothers, and he goes on to say that one out of three of those custodial parents receives a full payment averaging about five thousand dollars. Often times a judge makes the decision to grant custody to the mother based on the idea that a mother has a closer relationship with the child because of giving birth. However, it is important to remember as Smith (2003) reminds us that fathers love their children just as much as mothers, and to call them non-custodial parents is offensive. Often times when parents get divorced the mother has been a stay at home mom and the father has been the primary bread winner so, when a mom is awarded custody as you can imagine it becomes very difficult for her to balance the children and the one (or more) jobs that she has to work in order to support the family.
Although the father was not biological the courts granted him custodial rights over children after divorce courts found that it was in the best interest of the children. It breaks down the history from earlier years most of which continues to be used in court systems today. Stepparents do not owe a duty to support their stepchildren subsequent to divorce. However, Oregon does recognize a reciprocal duty that parents have
Is the cuckold lifestyle more widespread and common than what most probably assume? A friend of mine reads my articles fairly frequently. He shall remain nameless for reasons that will become obvious. He read a recent story I wrote about Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. In the headline, I suggested that Brad Pitt might be a 'cuckold'. A cuckold is a term for a man whose wife cheats on him with another man. My friend and I had a few beers last night while watching the New York Jets lose, unfortunately, to the Indianapolis Colts. After the game, our conversation was, well, quite interesting to say the least. Undoubtedly aided by three or four (five?) beers, my friend laughed and said I didn't even understand what 'cuckold' means. Well, that's
