I looked for other questions like mine, I could not find one, so I hope that you can help me. I live off of a US base in Germany. My husband and I are both US citizens. Recently, he had an inappropiate relationship with another military member. She is pregnant, and married as well. My husband and I are reconcially, but this pregnancy is weighing over us both. My questions are...
First, what set of laws will apply to this child since it was concieved overseas in Germany, state of the parents, or German law?
What is my husbands responsiblity in this? The woman does not know who the father is, her husband or mine.
Should he (my husband) request a paternity test first, or does her husband have to prove that he is not the father?
Whose laws will we fall under? I am so confused!
Sorry if this is unusual...I just need to know how best to protect my interests here.
Thank you~

Hi tlfsjfnde,

Your quote: Whose laws will we fall under? I am so confused!

US LAW.

Your quote:

I would or you will end up paying for someone else child for many years.

Good Luck.
