Default Court: Woman Must Pay Husband for Baby

It seems South Korea has it right, at least once.

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) - A South Korean court ordered a woman to pay her
husband $42,380 in compensation for having a baby with another man, a

judge
said Monday.


Exactly what they do in Amerika, except for two things:

1. They reversed the victim/perpetrator roles (by gender).
2. The victim is robbed of significantly LESS money!

Of course I forgot to mention that the woman still is the one who makes the
SOLE decision whether or not such child will legally exist in the first
place.


The 26-year-old woman told her husband in February 2002 she was pregnant
with his baby, and demanded that they marry. The baby was born in November
2002.

"The man had used condoms whenever they had sex, but he agreed to marry,
thinking that one of the condoms didn't work," said Hong Joong-pyo, a

judge
at the Seoul Family Court.

But the man's suspicion grew when relatives complained that "the baby

didn't
look like him at all," Hong said.

When the husband confronted his wife with a DNA test that showed the baby
was not his, the woman argued that the baby must have been switched at
hospital. When the husband moved to sue the hospital, the woman confessed

to
having been pregnant with another man's baby, Hong said.

Hong also nullified the marriage in his ruling Thursday.

The wife said she was sexually assaulted by the baby's real father, but

the
court rejected her argument for lack of evidence.
