Good luck WhatNow x

Lizzie, your post confused me. I simply replied to your comment that as the OP has only been married 6 months, so why is she angry with her husband ... like that's an impossibility andthere is an unwritten rule on how long after marriage the fog lifts and you can finally have an opinion on your partner if they've done something wrong. Or ... your comment was tongue in cheek but there was no icon to represent this so to me it just looked like a bizarre comment to make.

Sensemaya is right - this is your house - one which you invited him to and now appear to relinquish that invitation so that you can decide what to do. I would certainly seek advice in your shoes - it is a terrible situation to be in, but one alas that only you can get out of. I wish you all the best. You will do what is best for you - that's all you can do but if you decide to leave him (or kick him out) permenantly, don't mourn too much; it seems as though you have had a lucky escape. It would be absolutely awful if you had a child together and then he decided that he had changed his mind and did the same to you.

For better or worse, in sickness and health means nothing these days.

I think it does but what about honesty and trust? This man hasn't even bothered to tell his wife he has children from a past relationship.

if he refuses to pay he will go to prison, if he cannot pay he will not

I agree honesty and trust is an issue here, but (and it's a huge but) maybe he actually isn't a father.

It's just the run for the hills attitude, drop him like a ton of bricks attitude that seems to be the answer for most marriages these days. Why can't people possibly sit down talk like adults these days. Of course this is nothing personal anguk you just replied to my post.

As already said earlier, he has had the chance to get DNA tests done had he denied paternity at the time. It is too late to do this via the CSA now and he will have to have it done privately if he does not feel that he is the father.

Agreed, who the hell does he think he is that he does not have to attend court? If he knows he is innocent he has nothing to fear, this is not an attack on the OP or her partner, but the way they are dealing with it as described in the original post is just wrong wrong wrong!

Its in the CSA's interests to do this now, if the father is jailed and later discovered he is not the bio father and the CSA admits dismissing a DNA request (or trying to charge a fee the father could not afford) then he can claim unlawful imprisonment leaving the taxpayer with a large bill. There was a precedent listed on BAILII several years ago. The father could turn this into a money trail.

But we assume the CSA has gone through this process of offering an DNA test. And what about presumption of parentage?

Please would you be kind enough to locate this precedent and provide the link?

Thanks.
