"This item comes with a warning. It is legally fascinating and full of human emotion but not without its distasteful elements. It's about a new way of becoming a father, US-style. Here it is. Two doctors in Illinois have oral sex. Afterwards, Dr Sharon Irons, without telling Dr Richard Phillips, keeps the semen she took in orally and uses it to get pregnant. Two years later she brings a paternity suit against the unwitting sap, and wins a court order that he's the father; he now has to pay $800 a month upkeep for the child. (At least Bill Clinton escaped that.)
Phillips, understandably miffed at having to support the kid without even the pleasure of having been laid, returned to court with a wheeze of his own - accusing Irons of stealing his sperm and of causing him emotional distress, for which he demanded compensation. Her secret keeping of the semen was, Phillips said, a "calculated, profound personal betrayal"; he had trouble eating and sleeping and had "feelings of being trapped in a nightmare". His case was based on the premise that she had "deceitfully engaged in sexual acts, which no reasonable person would expect could result in pregnancy, to use the plaintiff's sperm in an unorthodox, unanticipated manner yielding extreme consequences".
Last week, an Illinois appeal court turned down his accusation of theft on her part and agreed with Irons's argument that, when he "delivered" his sperm to her, "it was a gift, an absolute and irrevocable transfer of title to property from a donor to a donee. There was no agreement that the original deposit [sic] would be returned upon request." (Is that "gift" tax-deductible, I wonder?) But the court did give him the go-ahead to pursue his claim for emotional distress."
Scary stuff guys.

"an absolute and irrevocable transfer of title to property from a donor to a donee" sounds like payment for sex,.....charge em both for prostitution

LOL....so to follow this logic, if i sneeze and give you the flu i have gifted you and you may have a civil cause of action!....(not to be confused with very real and appropriate criminal charge of knowingly gifting others with AIDS virus.)

Only if the flu virus has a provable value. One would have to check the sperm bank's for fair market value of sperm, but it is reasonable to believe that after "conversion" of the asset, growth, the attendant tax breaks, and maintainence fees of $800/mo, the sperm value sure exceeded the value of the BJ.
Hafta check with the FTC, but maybe the poor sap could've brought charges for illegal conversion of assets.

As a Canadian could I ask what oral sex is? Was it a fair exchange of eggs for swimming little thigees.

Well, I guess she is a spitter. This is just sick and wrong. What a devious, underhanded evil snake of a woman. Actually woman is reaching and giving too much credit. So would human, but the forum may object to my heartfelt description of this abomination of a person. (blood running cold through my veins) I wish upon her the most vile of deaths. May the fleas of a thousand camels infest her privates. I hope a cat pisses in her jelly bean jar!! Oh I got to go.........
Death is more universal than life. For although everyone dies, not everyone truly lives.
