Court held that a child support payment based on a later finding of non-paternity was not erroneous under the Act on Child Support.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Administrative Court upheld the decision to maintain a child support payment despite a subsequent ruling that the father was not the child's biological parent. The applicant argued the payment was erroneous under the Act on Child Support, while the opposing party contended the initial obligation remained valid. The court ruled that the statutory definition of erroneous payment did not cover this specific change in paternity status, thereby allowing the payment to stand.

Elatustukea oli maksettu sillä perusteella, että elatusvelvollinen
oli laiminlyönyt oikeuden päätöksellä vahvistetun
elatusavun maksamisen. Sittemmin oikeuden päätöksellä oli
vahvistettu, että elatusvelvollinen ei ollut elatustukea
saaneen lapsen isä. Elatustukea ei kuitenkaan katsottu maksetun
lapsen elatuksen turvaamisesta annetun lain 26 §:ssä
tarkoitetulla tavalla virheellisesti.
