Get breaking news alerts and special reports. The news and stories that matter, delivered weekday mornings.A California woman won a $150,000 settlement for back child support from her ex-husband, nearly 50 years after he skipped out on the family, she and her lawyer said Wednesday.
Anderson had a hunch Lenhart might be back in the United States. So she took her original 1970 court order for child support and showed up at the San Diego County Child Support Services office, where federal tax records placed Lenhart in Oregon, her lawyer said.“I didn’t expect him to show up," Anderson told NBC News. “I was really shocked to see him.”
“'Because I have to come and ask for your forgiveness,'” Anderson recalled him saying. “We had tears in our eyes.”The principal amount Lenhart owed was $35,000, which totaled to $160,000 with interest and penalties, according to lawyers on both sides. They settled for $150,000 and Lenhart has two years to pay it off.
Lenhart didn't pay child support all these years, believing he and his wife had made an out-of-court, handshake agreement back in 1970 that absolved him of making any payments, the man's attorney said Wednesday.
Congratulations!!!
Nonsense
This is bullshit. Men have no equivalent. Mentoo
Co yakında
The younger men these days would rather kill the mom, child or themselves rather than pay or be held hostage to the child support laws. Yes men should take care of their kids but moms should not get welfare if they receive steady child support and work.
This is incredible! However.... the child support laws are really brutal. Yes men should take care of their children. I know men who have been literally forced to live on the streets or be jailed for not being able to pay child support.
Is this a mother/daughter pic? Which is which? Beautiful smiles!
Let's hope everyone begins to pray God to forgive them of all their sins through what Jesus have done upon that cross around some 2000 years ago before rising from the grave thus defeating death and bringing life everlasting to those who believe in God &Jesus Christ The Saviour
KatiePhang 'I hired a private investigator to locate her so I could offer her payment. I am pleased we were able to reach an agreement.” I wonder who this reminded me of.
Never marry them.
about time! Good for Them!!! lets hope it will show the deadbeat dads they can run but only so far.... should be an honor to pay for your child'needs and be that role model!
Reparations!
She still looking for child support after 50 years. What a real loser. When do you start living than looking in the past. People are getting dumber each day.
No. She won the right to the support 50 years ago. He didn’t pay it for that long.
