child support

Here is a story that declares beware all over it. Attention those using sperm donors - do it right or this could happen to you.

"A sperm donor who helped a lesbian couple conceive two children is liable for child support under a state appellate court ruling that a legal expert believes might be the first of its kind in the U.S.

A Superior Court panel last week ordered a Dauphin County judge to establish how much Carl L. Frampton Jr. would have to pay to the birth mother of the 8-year-old boy and 7-year-old girl.

The former partner of a mother of a child born through donor insemination may have an obligation to pay child support.

According to a complaint - filed in Rockland County, N.Y. - by H.M., the parties lived as a couple for more than five years, beginning in August 1989. H.M. was a stay-at-home mother to E.T.'s children, while her partner completed chiropractic school. The plan was for H.M. to then go to school, and for the couple to have children.
