(Dauphin County, USA) - A sperm donor who helped a lesbian couple conceive two children is liable for child support under a Pennsylvania state appeals-court ruling. The state Supreme Court is currently considering a similar case, in which a sperm donor wants to enforce a promise made by the mother that he would not have to be involved in the child's life. That biological father was ordered to pay $1,520 in monthly support. About two-thirds of states have adopted versions of the Uniform Parentage Act that can shield sperm donors from being forced to assume parenting responsibilities. Pennsylvania has no such law.
