Only if the courts ordered him to pay child support. And then, only your mother could sue him for the money, not you. The money would not have been FOR you, but for your mother to help her raise you. |

No, and you're not being very fair. If anything you'd want to meet him and get to know him, not sue him.... |

Wow, you really wanna take money from your bio dad? even after all your mom did to him? That's kinda sad. |

No You can however sue your mother for failing to raise a responsible child. |

Even if he did...it would go to your mom not you. Stop being a victum and sue happy. Get a life! Leave your dad alone unless you want to actually hang out with him and love him. |

How about getting to know the guy instead of suing him for back support. It's not his fault your mom ran off with another guy. |

Wow. Would you actually consider doing that? I think that would be wrong. Why should he have to pay for your upbringing? He was denied the joy of watching you grow. Your mother chose to exchange the money for the secret. If anyone were entitled to money, it would have been your mother since she was the one who paid for your upbringing. Wow. I cannot believe that you would even consider trying to "stick it" to this man. Unbelievable. |

Wow, some Mother you have there! I doubt your Father will be made to pay for a child he had no knowledge of! What is this something you've learned from you Mother? You're an adult, you have your own children, leave the man alone and support yourself and your family on your own! Stop trying to be a low life like your Mother! |
|

Ramona-please step back!
|
would you really WANT to sue him? |

You probably could, but why would you. What kind of person would chase after the guy their mom ran around on because they want a hand out?
Leave the guy alone, it sounds like your mom and you have had your own life. Why should he pay for you when it was your mom's fault he wasn't around? |

sounds to me like you have some misdirected anger. If your dad didn't know about you and mom ran off with someone else three days later, it is your mom you should be after. that said, no, you have no legal standing as your mom kept it from him. A man cannot be held responsible for actions he wasnt aware of. Don't pass judgement or try to punish someone for something he knew nothing about. for all you know, he might have done the right thing given the opprotunity. Either that or you are attempting a cash grab, which is even more loathsome. You may want to ask your mom why she did what she did instead of trying to get money from someone that never had the opprotunity to make it right. |

No you can't.
And really why would you want to hurt the man who is your father and never knew about you? Why not take the opportunity to get to know him and not look at him as some kind of lottery ticket.
How tacky!
If you want to sue someone- sue your mother for withholding this information from you and lying to you your entire life. She's the person at fault here, not your biological father. |

You find out that a different man is your father, and your reaction is "can I get money from him?"
I am very happy that the answer is "no." A father should be a role model to his children. Please think about that before you try to get some money out of this man. |

There is nothing you or your mother could do because she nevered filed for child support. And now that you are 26 and not under the age of 18 you really can't do anything about it. If anyone was gonna sue your father it should be your mother and she should of done it before you became an adult. |

no you have to get the money before you are 18 |

you know i'd sue your mum because she lied to you and i'd go and tell your dad that he has a daughter. i bet he will be happy and he will love you and love his grandchildren. and why do you wan't to sue him he didn't know nothing, even if you sue him you will not get nothing cuse the case is his. he didn't know nothing so the court will not blame him and you will get your mum in seriace trouble if they knew the married illegally.
good luck |

I'd say no. IF he never knew about you, then how could you get money out of him. Anyway, it would have to be your mom who sued. I'm not sure she could get anything out of him either since she was dishonest and never told him about you. Why wouldn't you want to just get to know him instead of suing him?? I don't know if there's a statute of limitations on that either. I mean you're well over 18 now.
HEY, SCOTT A... HOW DO YOU KNOW THIS PERSON IS A FEMALE? THEY DIDN'T SAY IF THEY ARE MALE OR FEMALE AND YOU CAN'T TELL BY THEIR NAME. I got the idea this was a male... but I could be wrong. |

No. Child support is just that support for a child. The money is used to provide what the child needs to survive. You are an adult and will not get any money. Your mother sounds like a horrible person and you should be trying to sue her for keeping your father from you all those years. |

He'd owe support to your mother not to you- unless you supported youself all through childhood of course. |

Why do you want to sue your dad if you know he didn't know you existed? You sound american. |
|

why would you want to?
im sorry but it seems to me that he had nothing to do with your upkeep and does not deserve the time of day |

I think you can get support up to 10 years after you turn 18.
You really should just make sure you are a great role model for your children and not live in the past. |

No, you can not sue him for back support. But your mom can! |
|

Hismomma
 |
Yes you can. it doesnt matter if you are over the age of 18. My 1/2 brothers dad is still paying my mother for back child support and my brother is 28 |
|

Boricua24

yes he knew. don't believe men they are liars. and are only on earth for biological reasons. :-) |
|

helio

no, why would you even want to do that? however, for anyone who had a dead-beat dad and there was a child support order against him that he never paid, when you turn 18 you can personally sue for the money that was owed to your mother while you were growing up. you can use that money to pay for college or for living expenses so you don't have to work while in school but even with that there is a cut off you can't be 30 suing someone for not paying child support. |
