Man Can Sue Woman For Sperm Theft Distress
Feb 24, 2005 10:03 am US/Central
CHICAGO (AP) A woman accused of using her lover's sperm to impregnate herself without his knowledge can be held liable for the unwitting father's emotional pain, the Illinois Appellate Court has ruled.
In the ruling released Wednesday, a three-judge panel reinstated part of a lawsuit against Sharon Irons, a doctor from Olympia Fields. The ruling sends the case back to Cook County Circuit Court.
Irons was sued by her former lover, Chicago family physician Richard Phillips, who accused her of a "calculated, profound personal betrayal" of him after a brief affair they had six years ago.
Phillips alleges that he and Irons, who practices internal medicine, never had intercourse during their four-month affair, although they did have oral sex three times.
His suit contends that Irons, without his knowledge, kept some of his semen and used it to impregnate herself.
The relationship ended when Phillips learned Irons had lied to him about being recently divorced and was, in fact, still married to another doctor, according to court documents.
Nearly two years later, Irons slapped Phillips with a paternity suit. DNA tests showed Phillips was indeed the father, court papers state.
Phillips then sued Irons, claiming her actions robbed him of sleep and caused him to have trouble eating. He is haunted by "feelings of being trapped in a nightmare," court papers state.
Irons responded that her alleged actions weren't "truly extreme and outrageous" and that Phillips' pain wasn't bad enough to merit a lawsuit. The circuit court agreed and dismissed Phillips' suit in 2003.
But the higher court ruled that, if Phillips' story is true, Irons "deceitfully engaged in sexual acts, which no reasonable person would expect could result in pregnancy, to use plaintiff's sperm in an unorthodox, unanticipated manner yielding extreme consequences."
But the judges agreed with the lower court's decision to dismiss fraud and theft claims against Irons.
They agreed with Irons' lawyers that she didn't steal the sperm.
"She asserts that when plaintiff 'delivered' his sperm, it was a gift -- an absolute and irrevocable transfer of title to property from a donor to a donee," the decision said. "There was no agreement that the original deposit would be returned upon request."

So, bascially, once your load has been shot, unless you have agreed to its return before hand, you can't have it back.
AAAHAHAHAHA!

so if she "snowballed" it, would that be a return of the gift and he is now re-entitled to the semen as his own property again?

PIGS ARE MEN!!!
thats terrible...i once dated a girl for a while, and toward the end of our relationship, she insisted she was pregnant, although we never had sex. "you can get pregnant from swallowing, i saw it on the news."
"no you can't, there has been one documented case of that in all of history, when a stab victim's intestinal tract was accidently sutured to the uteran wall. you can't."
her: "but maybe..."
me: "not. in. a. million. years."
her: "ok...i fucked someone else."
whores...

He should get at least 172,800 from suing her. That could be the actual damages portion. Figure it out, people.

How exactly did she...you know what, never mind I don't want to know.
In other, somewhat related news, the woman in the next cube just told me that the woman in the cube on the other side of her was on the phone all day yesterday over a little domestic issue. It would seem as though another woman has listed her husband on a birth certificate as "my baby's daddy". A court ordered paternity test has absolved the gentleman of guilt and they are taking steps to have his name removed from the little tyke's birth certificate.
We don't know the time frame here on whether this was pre or post marriage but DAHAM boyeee what the fuck.
