Description

In this declaratory judgment action, plaintiff, individually and as next friend for her female child L, seeks an adjudication that defendant is L 's father, and an order for L 's support. The trial court has sustained defendant's motion for summary judgment, and the plaintiff has appealed. Plaintiff is married, and she is the mother of two children conceived of that marriage. L is a female child about two years old. We are not advised by the record whether defendant is married or not, but in any case he is not married to the plaintiff. The substance of plaintiff's petition is that L was born July 21, 1968; that plaintiff is L 's natural mother and defendant is her natural father; that defendant has refused to ""assume the responsibilities of fatherhood"" and provide for L ; and that plaintiff is without means to support, maintain and care for L, but defendant is financially able to do so. Averring further that a justiciable controversy exists, plaintiff prays for an order of the court: (a) declaring that defendant is L 's natural father; and (b) awarding plaintiff a reasonable sum for L 's support and maintenance.
