Mum ordered to pay back sterile 'dad'

Article here. Excerpt:

'A MUM has been ordered to repay child support to a man she claimed was her son's father after he found he could not conceive.

The man spent nine years believing the child was his after what he says was a "one-night stand".

He told a court he believed the mother had manipulated the situation.

The woman has now been ordered to repay the $3730 he paid in child support.

The couple, who cannot be identified, met on the internet in late 2000 and had a brief rendezvous in 2001.

They lived in different states.

The woman claimed she believed he was the only person who could have been the dad.

She had him sign a statutory declaration stating he was the father so she could receive the family tax benefit.

But the man discovered last year, while trying to conceive a child with his new partner, that he was "physiologically incapable of conceiving a child".'
