I hope he wins this one. If he’s not the father he shouldn’t have to pay for his ex’s irresponsible behavior.

That clerk in the hospital was out of line, too. If she did what the wife claimed, she really screwed up this guy’s life.
Why not make HER reimburse the guy for the grief she caused him.

Technically, by the laws of the State of Missouri, the ruling was correct. Morally, in my opinion, it was wrong. However, it is up to the courts to rule on the validity and constitutionality of such laws. Which is why this bothers me so much:

"Ms. Turner appealed the case to the Western District Court of Appeals, where Mr. Salazar's conviction was affirmed by a 6-5 margin in February. "

I have to wonder what they are thinking.

That would be justice! If the woman protested the husband's name being put on the child's birth certificate and it was put there anyway, maybe he could sue the hospital for the nurse's actions. What she did was fraudulent.

Then again, no one made the mother sign the paperwork, either. She could have refused. I had to send in my daughters' paperwork in order to get their birth certificate(s), because I patently refused to sign anything.....(I knew I was way too medicated :-)

Anyway, the guy had a chance to get it straightened out, but didn't. Now he wants to cry foul?
