My husband has been served child support papers and we live in California. The daughter in question is 15 years old and lives in another state. He is in the process of setting up a paternity test with the court. If in fact he is the father, will he be responsible for the last 15 years of back pay? Also, he has been out of work for 3 years and I have been supporting us financially. Will I be responsible for helping him pay child support?

The mother "unofficially" let her ex-boyfriend have her. He may or may not have gained some type of rights over her. i have even heard that this child may either be still with him, or in a foster home. All I know is that there has been NO paternity established for this child. DSS in this state has given me the run-around for almost 3 years. i even found out that this child was in a local foster care facility, here, in the same county for 3 months while my establishment case was opened, 2 years ago. Back then, I was never notified of this from DSS. Instead, they closed my case in July 2004. I am still determined to find out the truth once and for all, whether I am this girl's father or not. Attorneys have told me that I at least need to know where the child is before i can seek a court order. i need help elsewhere, as I am still helpless all this time later. this child is now 7 years old. All I know, is that she could be in either Georgia, or north carolina with the ex's family.
Also, since I am not established as the child's father, foster facilities won't quickly give me info. All i have is the child's full name and birthdate. I even called a PI, and he told me that he doesn't locate children, and that "only DSS would know where the child is" was his exact words. Various DSS employees act as if they don't want to touch this. I have even been told by a few employees to just "give up". Can you believe that? I know who the ex's family is, I have even made contact with them, but they try to avoid me all the way, simply because of my possible connection. So you can see, I have made several different approaches on this. Even though they didn't work, I still believe that there is a way. I appreciate all answers, Thank you.

My childrens father has been sentenced 3 years for child support. One of them he says is not his and the mother never showed up to court for the paternity test, but he still got a year for it. The other two are his and he got a year for each one of them. The sentences are to run consecutively. He wants to go back to court to get the sentences ran concurrently. What can be done?
His sentences are not running together right now. They are running one behind the other. As in he would have to serve one sentence then serve another and so on. I have not taken child support out on him. His other children mother's have.

A man had a girlfriend. They weren't monagamous. They broke up, and didn't speak for 5 years. She had a child after their breakup, and the math makes it look like he is the father. But she didn't inform him that she was even pregnant. He did not know until 5 years after their breakup that she was pregnant and had a child.

So, she waited until the child was 5 years old, and then decided to get the authorities to pay child support. He claims that the child is not his, and requested a dna test. The court denied his request.

It is now 4 years later. The child is 9.

The man in question is a roofer, and is able to find work only periodically. He has had much trouble keeping up with child support, and has been before the court and punished a couple of times for it. Both times, he again requested a dna test, claiming that the child is not his. His request has been consistently denied.

He was recently arrested again for failure to pay. His court appointed attorney says that his chances of getting a dna test are almost nil. The attorney says that in Texas, at 0-3 years, they will usually grant the request for a dna test. At 3-5 years, chances are 50/50 that they will grant a request for a dna test. But at 5 years plus, the attorney says his chances of getting a dna test are close to zero.

Is there anything he can do here to get a dna test, that doesn't require money? This is a desperate situation. He has now got a wife and stepson. His wife was recently shown to have a serious medical condition, and needs him at home.
Oops. I meant to say, "she decided to get the authorities to make him pay child support".

Prenatal (before your child’s birth) DNA testing:
Amniocentesis: This test is performed in the second trimester, anywhere from the 14th-20th weeks of pregnancy. During this procedure, the doctor uses ultrasound to guide a thin needle into your uterus, through your abdomen. The needle draws out a small amount of amniotic fluid, which is tested. Risks include a small chance of harming the baby and miscarriage. Other side effects may include cramping, leaking of amniotic fluid, and vaginal bleeding. A doctor's consent is needed to do this procedure for paternity testing.

Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS): This test consists of a thin needle or tube which a doctor inserts from the vagina, through the cervix, guided by an ultrasound, to obtain chorionic villi. Chorionic villi are little finger-like pieces of tissue attached to the wall of the uterus. The chorionic villi and the fetus come from the same fertilized egg, and have the same genetic makeup.
How much did it cost? Did you have any side effects and was the baby ok?
Here is the reason I want to do it!

Ok so I got put into a situation that really sucks. Let me give you guys a little history of me and this girl. We dated for 3 years, she cheated on me and we haven't been dating for the past 2 years. I am 20 and she is 21. I live in California and she lives Michigan. So i go back to Michigan back in Oct and ran into her. We ended up having s*x 3 times.....1 time without a condom( I know I'm stupid for doing that). We haven't talked since the other day and she tells me that she is pregnant and she doesn't know who the dad is. Well finally the truth come out and she told me she has and had a boyfriend at the time. She's been with him for a year. I just want to know if its mine Cause if its mine i want to be there throughout the experience. If its not mine i don't want to waste my time and money when its not my responsibility.
