If you live with your husband and he pays another woman child support can you file to get child support from him too?

no, but he needs to get it modified see links below

If you're the noncustodial parent, you might be liable. The fact that your husband has a child by someone else is irrelevant to this.

Of course not, but keep in mind that the children of a married woman are presumed to be those of her husband unless/until proven otherwise.

The parents of the child are liable for support - not their spouses.

This begs the question, "Why would you?" and perhaps, "How is it any of their business?" Supposing it was it was any of their concern however. You would simply look them in the face and say, "My husband has a child by another woman."

If the child was conceived AFTER your marriage , it is grounds for divorce.

He could very well be arrested as he has failed to pay the support money, he shold pay then have a wife and child.

Since you have become pregnant from having affair with another man and if your husband has forgiven you and is acceptable of the baby then the two of you can raise that child. However, if the biological father is interested in his own baby then he has some visitation rights. If you husband does not want to raise another man's baby then you will have to consider at least separation from your husband or divorce…

* In some cases yes she can get alimony and often will be able to keep the house as well as receive child support. Any man who leaves his wife and children without proper support isn't much of a man.

To clarify, if you mean a woman has had an affair and become pregnant? If this is the case, and the husband is aware of it, he can order a paternity test to determine if the child is his or not. If it is not, as far as I know, the woman can go after the man who fathered the child for financial support. Support obligations only belong to the actual biological father OR a…

I suggest you file a motion in court to declare the existence of father/child relationship. Be prepared to pay child support and confront a very angry husband!

iN vIRGINIA, THE BABY BORN TO A MARRIAGE IS CONSIDERED THE HUSBAND'S CHILD, SO IF THE REAL FATHER WANTS THE BABY , IT IS UP TO THE HUSBAND AND THE COURT. aS FOR COLLECTING CHILD SUPPORT FROM THE HUSBAND, i ASSUME HE IS NOT LIVING WITH THE MOTHER, THERE IS SOMETHING KNOWN AS DNA TESTING THAT THE JUDGE WILL USE.

No, she has no way to collect. Child support is determined both by the husbands ability to pay and the woman's need. For example- if your husband makes $40k a year and the woman doesn't work, the court would order the woman to work 40 hrs/week to support her own child and she'd have to furnish proof to the court that she was doing that. An illegal alien doesn't have the ability to do that…

The issue would be adultery, but not who she was with.

yes i believe so. just call the child support help line or prosecutive office.

No! The baby isn't his, why should he have to pay for it? If the real father decided not to stay, he could be taken to court for support. The law assumes that when a married woman has a baby it belongs to her husband. Even with DNA proof that would exonerate the father as the biological contributor, the answer is YES. A man who finds himself in this type of situation should consult with…

Yes, unless the child is being adopted by someone else like her husband.

You won't have to pay it by writing a check or giving money to the mother. BUT, if she pursues the matter you can lose money from a joint bank account or through a lawsuit against your husband. She could also get a garnishment of his wage.

Possibly. Unless they were legally separated or the boyfriend's paternity has been established, the husband is presumed to be the father of the child in question.

Yes, they are his kids.

This question is a complicated one in that the laws of paternity do not necessarily establish the biological father as the father for child support purposes but rather look to the circumstances surrounding the case. Your husband is what is known as a presumed father, which is essentially a man that was married to the mother when the child was born, legally agreed to be the father of his wife's child (by signing the birth…

Some jurisdictions still have 'alienation of affection statutes, however, those cases are difficult and expensive to pursue. The court will not hold your husband not responsible for his own behavior and neither should you. If your husband has started another family with a new woman and lives with her then you should consult with an attorney who can review your situation and explain your options under the laws in your jurisdiction. A divorce would give…

Her child's biological father if she has obtained a court order for child support. Her child's biological father if she has obtained a court order for child support. Her child's biological father if she has obtained a court order for child support. Her child's biological father if she has obtained a court order for child support.

Well of course it would be the other mans child regardless of whether you are married or not. Clarification: In some states, the husband is legally considered the father, even if he is not the biological father, and is financially responsible for the child. There are also some states in which the biological father has to pay child support to the mother, even if she is still married to her husband. So you really need…

Check with the military & laws of your state.

When a married woman gives birth to a child it is presumed to be the natural child of her spouse. You can't simply file a petition for child support in this type of situation. An extramarital affair that results in the birth of a child causes a complicated legal situation. Her husband may be required to declare the child is not his and the court will require a DNA confirmation. Once paternity is established the…

A married woman cannot force her husband to stay with her even for the children's sake, but, she can seek out legal advice and either get a separation; start divorce proceedings and also child support. In some cases the wife may get some spousal support as well, but this is not always the case.

The biological father is the legal father. The husband is not the father unless he decides he wants to claim that title and wants to raise this child. Slim to none on that one. More likely you are going to be a single parent, so go after the bio dad for child support. He owes his child that.

I'm not clear on what your asking. If your asking do you have to pay then it depends on a few things (assuming you two have kids of your own): You have to pay child support for your biological kids unless they have been adopted by someone else. You also have to pay child support for any of the kids she had with her ex husband if you have adopted any of them. You only…

The answer depends on where they live and the laws in their jurisdiction. In most states the husband is automatically assumed to be the child's father unless there are documents filed that establish another man as the child's father and deny the husband's paternity. If you find yourself in this position you should consult with an attorney immediately.

In theory the women should now be paying for there percentage of the keep of the child that is no longer living with the women, so yes she should pay child support now.

He doesnt have to be there for you devorce him if you have been abandoned.

Far better your question should read "How do you deal with the fact your husband cheated and created a child by another woman? Each person (Wife) will deal with this kind of situation in their own way. The shock will either break up her relationship with her husband, or she will forgive him if she has played a part in the circumstances leading up to his infidelity i.e not being able to satisfy his needs…

This is a messy situation. If I am clear in understanding the situation, the woman got pregnant with a lover and not her husband. First off, the natural father of the child has rights. He will have to pay child support if ordered in court or settled out of court, but he also has visitation rights and should be involved in the child's life. The husband of this woman, if he chooses to stay married…

If it's merely a lie, it's because they love your husband and want to steal them from you. If it's true, they obviously love your husband and want them to take care of your child.

Your husband, as the father, certainly could, and the family court will definitely take into account the fact that you're also part of the household.

You have no rights in the paternity suit. You ARE NOT biologically involved. The only rights you have is if you want to divorce your husband for adultery and if you have any children with him, for support/alimony.

You need to consult with an attorney. In any case, the woman is only half responsible and bears no responsibility if she didn't know he was married. You may not have a cause of action. She, however, can sue him for child support. You need to consult with an attorney. In any case, the woman is only half responsible and bears no responsibility if she didn't know he was married. You may not have a…

You have no legal rights relating to your husband's child with another woman. You have not explained your interest in this matter. You can step forward as a concerned adult and offer to care for the child but your guardianship must be approved by the court.

Love and support from husband and family.

No, she technically hasn't broken any laws by deceiving her husband.

No, it goes to the state.

that means that they are going out and your husband is cheating on you.

Most states have no-fault divorces, meaning that there is little consideration for who is to blame for the divorce. This means you might have to pay spousal support even if your spouse cheated.

Ethically, if the child is yours then you pay support. The circumstances are irrelevant.

Bring in another woman.

Yes. Usually when a lesbian couple use a friend as a donor the other partner adopt the child or they have a written contact that he will not be asked for child support. if it in this case was a woman who had sex just to get pregnant the same rule as always applies - wear a condom if you don't want children. The mom can ask the biological father for child support and he…

The quote 'out of the mouth's of babes' applies here. Children are innocent and do not understand everything they see or hear so if your child said they saw their father kissing another woman it's time for you to confront your husband.

If a minor child becomes a minor-parent, then child support can be requested through the AGs office. I'm sorry, I have no idea what the question is in reference to. However, the Attorney General's office of any state does not involve itself with child support matters. That is the jurisdiction of the state's child support enforcement division. The AG would only become involved if fraud or another criminal act connected to the matter presented itself.

Yes, the issue of a biological father not wanting the woman to bear the child is irrelevant and will not affect his legal obligation to support that child. Both parents of a minor child are legally obligated to financially support that child until he or she reaches the stated age of majority.
