My question involves child support in the State of: Texas
DNA test proves my husband NOT the father of a child he's never met and that he pays child support for. The baby momma went to the Texas OAG in August 2008 and ask for child support and back time from when the child was born in 2004. So that’s a whopping $12,000 for a child that’s not his!!! OAG websites states under the mistaken paternity section on the FAQ’s page, that the NON-dad is still responsible for arrears. How is that possible? Why would he be responsible for a child that's not his and somebody else’s???? To top that off if they find the real dad, that man doesn't have to pay back time! How is this right...even ethical? My husband was never served from the beginning and already living in another state in August 2008 and didn't have money for a lawyer at the time. All the OAG does to notify the non-custodial parents is sending out notification of the mediation meeting through the mail. According to the OAG if you don’t go to the mediation, a court date is set. But my husband was never even served! We only found out about the order when we were visiting in late September when we received a copy of the final order. So when we moved back to Texas in May 2011 we got a lawyer and got DNA request filed with the court which was granted and DNA results were 0%. Why the non-dad responsible for arrears and not the baby momma for paternity fraud for signing an affidavit stating she only had sex with him and only him, in front of a notary. Maybe I might be reading something wrong but my husband was never married to her and hasn’t had a relationship with the child. Her family didn’t want him around the baby so he just gave her what she wanted. They both should’ve done something legally at the time but it’s done. But can someone help me out here.
