Wife cheated about Child Status, Men Can This Compensation
LONDON, KOMPAS.com - strong A British man who finally figured out that the men and women he grew up to adolescence was not a child has been given a compensation of 25,000 pounds ( approximately USD 388 million) in compensation after his ex-wife sued for fraud. The poor man named Richard Rodwell.
He became a loving father to Adam and Laura until her marriage to the children's mother, Helen, disbanded. After the divorce, Rodwell was routinely paying alimony for the children for more than four years of salary as plant manager. However, in 2008, Rodwell ordered DNA tests after hearing rumors about her biological father. The results showed that the two children fathered by different men, not himself.
After that result, such children severed all contact with him. He claims his ex-wife made them turn away from him.
"The court treated the case as a mourning like that gives the same amount that you would receive if your child was killed in the crash, which is 11,800 pounds. I think in this case the district court judge should go further than that because of the level of lies and the fact that the new wife Rodwell too old to give him a child, he lost the opportunity to be a father, "said attorney
Rodwell, Roger Terrell, at the end of last week.
"It's like a mourning for my lost children who I believe is my son. I treat them both as if they were my own children. I was there when they were born and helping them with homework from school. I can not stop thinking about those kids because they are my life. I always wanted children and grandchildren and now it's too late for me. Children are the most important people in my life and now they are gone. However, I have to do a DNA test. There are whispers that the children were not my son and I need to know. I can not live with uncertainty again, "said Rodwell (46) from Peterborough, England, who spoke for the first time about the controversial case.
Rodwell started dating Helen, now 44, in 1989 when they were both worked as a fruit packer in a factory near King's Lynn, Norfolk, England. They then moved into a caravan and were married in 1990 in King's Lynn Register Office.
Laura was born in 1992. Rodwell is present at birth and signed the birth certificate. Two years later, Adam was born. Rodwell still had no reason to suspect that Helen was having an affair.
"My life feels complete. We moved into a house, I was happy being married, had a good job, and two healthy children. What do you want? "Said Rodwell.
However, in 2004, the marriage was falling apart. "Helen disappeared for a few days without telling me where he was going. I just found the former railway and bus tickets are used. I pick up the kids from school as usual and went home. The house was empty without a note or anything. Helen went to places like Newcastle or Manchester, and when I asked why he went there he said, 'Nothing to do with you', "said Rodwell.
When they divorced in 2004, Helen granted custody of the child and to Rodwell next four years to pay alimony 300 pounds per month for the children.
Four years after the divorce, he began to hear rumors that Laura, now 20 years old, not her daughter. "People say she does not look like me and that Helen had an affair with a teacher, neighbor caravan park . My confrontation that to Helen on the phone, but he insisted I was the father of Laura. Finally, I said, I want a DNA test, "said Rodwell.
DNA test done and the result makes Rodwell flabbergasted. "When I read the letter stating that I am not the father of Laura, I do so as if paralyzed. When I called Helen, we had a fight and he just said, "So what do you want?" He did not even apologize, "said Rodwell.
Rodwell did not tell her, but he explained in court documents how the child's attitude be turned against him. "He did not come menjeguk me and if I see it on the streets, he would make obscene movements with his fingers and on one occasion even kicked my car," said Rodwell.
Rodwell also do a DNA test to find out whether he be a father Adam.
"I still do not know who the father of Adam," he said. "For nearly 17 years I took care of her as my daughter, and Adam for over 14 years and now it's all gone. It was very sad. I would love to have a close relationship with their stepfather, but Helen did not allow it and told them to stay away from me. "
On the court, in addition to cash compensation of 12.500 pounds for each child, she also won a court order forcing the ex-wife out of the house with them first, which will be sold for 119,995 pounds.
Helen was not willing to comment on the case.
