A Toronto-area man must continue paying child support to his former wife despite DNA tests proving he is not the biological father of her 16-year-old twins, an Ontario Superior Court judge has ruled.

Pasqualino Cornelio will also not recoup any of the child-support money he paid out since the couple separated a decade ago, Justice Katherine van Rensburg wrote in her decision.

In making her recent ruling, the judge referred to a 1999 Supreme Court of Canada decision that said if someone acts as a parent and provides support for a child during a marriage, they are obliged to continue that financial support after separation or divorce -- even if the child is not biologically theirs.

"While the failure of Ms. Cornelio to disclose to her husband the fact that she had an extramarital affair and that the twins might not be his biological children may well have been a moral wrong against Mr. Cornelio, it is a wrong that does not afford him a legal remedy to recover child support he has already paid, and that does not permit him to stop paying child support," Judge van Rensburg wrote.

Mr. Cornelio had argued his former spouse, Anciolina Cornelio, provided him with "incomplete and misleading information" that led him to believe he was the biological father of the twins.

He told the court his ex-wife failed to disclose an extramarital affair before the twins' birth, concealing the fact that he may not be their father.

Mr. Cornelio was seeking repayment of the child support he paid out since the couple separated in 1998, or at least from May of 2002, when the pair agreed to joint custody and child support.

But the judge pointed out that Mr. Cornelio knew at the time of separation that his wife had an extramarital affair with someone named Tony, who may have fathered the twins -- but he sought joint custody regardless. He only began pursuing the issue after Ms. Cornelio began seeking increased child-support payments, the judge noted.

Ms. Cornelio had told the court that she did not know the identity of the twins' biological father, saying she had no memory of an extramarital affair prior to their birth. She attributed the memory lapse to medication she was taking at the time.

Citing precedent, Judge van Rensburg said her ruling was based on the best interests of the children.

"The right to child support is the right of a child, and is independent of a parent's own conduct," she wrote, noting that Mr. Cornelio was the only father the twins knew during the course of the marriage and that they developed a "natural relationship between a parent and his children."

"The fact of that relationship, which continued for six years before separation and then for 10 years after separation, even if it has now become strained, is sufficient to require Mr. Cornelio to continue to contribute toward the children's material needs," Judge van Rensburg wrote.

I think using this isolated event as a reason to say that no women should be judges is ridiculous.

There have been plenty of male judges that made stupid calls.

So I guess we eliminate men too?

Only transsexuals on the bench? lmao

Exactly. It all fits into the poopy theory.

On one hand you have a guy like SF whose mother made too big a deal out of his poopies "oh they're the biggest on the block, that's my boy"

On the other hand you have a guy like this (and he's not alone on here), whose mother never complimented their poopies at all.
 
he fucked himself.. "But the judge pointed out that Mr. Cornelio knew at the time of separation that his wife had an extramarital affair with someone named Tony, who may have fathered the twins -- but he sought joint custody regardless.

But that being said any woman that trys to pass off a bastard child to another man is just evil.
 
Let's make this straight. You are saying that women have no business being judges? You are seriously saying this?

Libertarians really are creatures from the 19th century.

Is it evil to do whatever is necessary to feed your child?

That's right. I believe that under Canadian law, his prior acknowledgment of the children as his own and his caring for them accordingly precluded his claim at that later date. Those decisions are always undertaken bearing the best interests of the children in mind. What sort of effect is this lawsuit likely to have on them, whether or not it had been successful?

If he didnt want to pay he should have tested the babies when they were born and denied support then. HOWEVER personally I believe if he had no clue then found out at some point down the road that he was paying for another mans kids then i think he should have a case.
 
I would say the judge made the correct decision since the guy knew he was not the biological father at the time he fought for custody.
