Here is the story I'm getting:

10 years after sleeping with someone once, wages begin getting garnished from his paycheck. He goes to court to find out what the deal is and is told that he missed his court appearance and therefore is now the legal guardian of a kid whose mom apparently put him on the birth certificate but never told him. She apparently never had any contact with him during the pregnancy then she showed him the kid once after it was born and mentioned he could be the dad but refused to get a paternity test. She said the kid didn't look like him, there could be a lot of dads, and then never contacted him again. The court appointed attorney says that they sent someone to his address to subpoena him as well as put in in the paper and he didn't show up so he is the legal guardian. He says he was no longer living at the address and never read it in the paper so he never knew he was supposed to show up to court. Both the court appointed attorney as well as a private lawyer hired years later tell him that there is a loophole in the law and because he did not show up to court, he is the legal guardian and must pay child support now no matter what; even if he was to obtain a negative paternity test now. This all took place in Texas to the best of my knowledge.

This sounds insane to me. Could this possibly be true?!?

I am seeking visitations with my daughter. Its a long story. I was approached by a lady online in which we hit it off instantly and become involved in a relationship. She was married at the time and left her husband for me. In this time she became pregnant and eventually ended up going back to her husband. When her husband left to go to Iraq she wanted to continue seeing me afraid that maybe her husband might change his mind about accepting my daughter into their family. I have been having visitations with my daughter and seeing her mother every since he left. She started talking things over with him via email and phone. I guess because maybe she was feeling guilty. As it stands right now they want me to go to court and get a paternity test ordered and if in fact I am found to be the biological father then have visitations and child support determined by the court. One other thing he had a vasectomy done about 10 years ago in the military from what I have been told. They also are offering to try to settle things out of court as far as visitations go if I am found to be the biological father. I look forward to your reply as soon as you can find the time. I work from 5am till 3:30pm M-F but I take a lunch break from 12pm to 12:30pm. Feel free to contact me during my lunch break or after work anytime. I also have emails and instant messages from the mother as proof to all of this. I just want to be able to be apart of my daughters life. It is not her fault what has happened. I think she has the right to know both her parents and I will not turn my back on her. Thank You very much for your time.
