Does my wife's giving birth affect the divorce I plan to file?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Eric K Johnson (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Utah Family Law LC
Yes, your wife giving birth during the marriage and before the divorce is finalize will have a profound effect on your divorce. I'm a Utah lawyer, and Utah does not allow or recognize same sex marriage, so I cannot give you a definitive answer to this question; however, were you a heterosexual couple, the law in Utah (and in most states) is that a baby born to a married couple is presumed to be the offspring of the marriage. You would need to prove that the child is not your biological offspring. As a lesbian couple, it's easy for you to prove you aren't "the father" because you're a woman. Still, because the law has not yet caught up to same-sex marriage when it comes to children born to same-sex couples, the law where you are may still presume the child to be born of the parents, not conceived "outside" the marriage. Your wife may claim that while she conceived using donor sperm you nevertheless agreed to her getting pregnant and to raising the child as your own, in which case you may need to prove you never wanted or knew of the pregnancy Many states will hold the sperm donor responsible for the financial support of the child if a legally binding sperm donor agreement has not been executed. Call a good lawyer and meet with this good lawyer to see what the law is in your jurisdiction and how you should proceed.
