Surrogate mother keeps baby and files for child support?

Well, if he doesn't know he's a fool, the Florida Short Bus Nine (Supreme Court) will tell him to his face. BTW, do we have any Florida residents in this room. == Not regularly. We had a Florida order, so I'm real familiar with their family/cs law. FL is one of the most father-unfriendly states, pushing the envelope of legality as a matter of procedure (metered, not posted, and delayed mailing of letters of time-sensitive matters, and income withholding orders, not signed by judge and instated without required notification to NCP). Curiously (or predictably), there is a lot of father-friendly legislation, more than most states, but it is rarely, if ever, enforced. |

Well, it's pretty much assured the woman will keep the baby and the father will pay. Birthing for dollars. The great American dream. Get paid as a surrogate to have a kid. Get paid as a surrogate to keep a kid. Either way you get paid. Don't you just love how our family laws always protect a woman's right to renege on her agreements? Whenever I think about this, I'm at a crossroads: is this a matriarchists dream or is this just the paternalistic part of judges saying "that little lady doesn't know any better so we'll protect her from herself." I think there's a little bit of sexism going both ways to protect people who lie and cheat simply because they are just so cute. == You saw a picture? I couldn't even find her name. It's actually more of a general comment (no I don't have a picture). You could be right: I wonder if even the sperm wanted to be in the same room during the artificial insemination absent a two drink minimum. But how many times have you seen a man try to convince a judge with those big old puppy dog eyes? And how many times did that succeed? I'm also wondering if the kidnapper does get child support, will it come only from the father? If the egg is from the wife, would the judge order both to pay? And what about custody/visitation? Would that same judge order visitation, if not on that order than on a parallel order. Not that I hold out much chance of that given the Florida Short Bus Nine. Very likely he's going to find the state Supreme Court blaming _him_ for what happened. Of course! It's ALWAYS the man's fault for the woman's sole choice. The egg did not come from his wife, thus she would be exempt from "child support". Even if it did come from her, the odds of such a judgement against her would approach zero because she is a woman. In regard to visitation, does it REALLY matter? Ordered or not, it's never enforced; thus a moot point. |

You had it right the frst time: it's the female supremacists' dream scenario. In most, if not all, surrogate birthing arrangements, there is a *written* contract. The simple fact is that the surrogate mother has broken the contract and the court *should by law* force her to adhere to the contract. The face that the court has allowed her an out makes a mockery of contract law and is a blatant admission of a pro- female bias in the courts. Bill |

I thought the crux of the matter was that the woman never signed the contract, thus legally he has no protection. A pretty rotten thing to do, but then if you were putting yourself into his situation you'd think you'd make damn sure the contract had been signed before giving anyone your DNA. The case will hinge on whether or not he and his wife can get the baby away from the surrogate. If they can't, he will certainly be saddled with CS as the courts will claim that the baby didn't do anything wrong and shouldn't be "punished" by not having access to Daddy's money. Kinda like Shane Seyer and other statutory rape cases involving young boys and pregnancies. - Ron ^*^ |

Wouldn't it be sweet if he were awarded custody and she had to pay CS? |

The only way that would happen would likely be if the courts decided to enforce the "understood agreement", at which point she would immediately point out that it was "understood" that she wouldn't have to pay CS. Of course that wouldn't hold up if she was a man, but she's not... - Ron ^*^ |
