Straub v. BMT by Todd

(

)

... that in his dissent in the Straub v. BMT by Todd case, Indiana Supreme Court Justice Roger Owen DeBruler argued that if someone else promises to pay your share of child support, then their promise should be considered legally binding? Source: https://law.justia.com/cases/indiana/supreme-court/1994/10s04-9412-jv-1284-4.html "I agree with the majority that one cannot contract away the right of a child to financial support from one of her parents. One cannot contract away one's liability for negligence either, but we do permit people to buy insurance. If an individual's insurance coverage is inadequate then that person must pay. However, we do not void insurance contracts by invoking a public policy of imposing liability for negligence. The proper procedure to make certain that B.M.T. receives adequate support is that suggested by Judge Chezem's opinion in the Court of Appeals. Straub v. B.M.T. b/n/f Todd (1993), Ind. App., 626 N.E.2d 848, 854. If a person promises to pay the father's share of child support then, if that person is able, he or she should pay."

Date, size, refs, hook, neutrality, QPQ, copyvio spot-check, all GTG. One request for User:Futurist110: can you format the refs with proper citation templates? They are missing date, author, journal, etc. I formatted the book one. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 08:39, 20 February 2021 (UTC)
