Description
We face here the difficult and unique problem of defining the duty of support which a husband owes to his wifes illegitimate child when the husband, from the date of the birth of the child, accepts the child into his family, publicly acknowledges the child as his own and treats the child as if he were legitimate. We shall point out that while under some circumstances the husband would be estopped to assert the illegitimacy of the child and thereby avoid liability for its support, we cannot ascertain in this record a sufficient basis for such an estoppel. Likewise, although the husbands express agreement to provide for the child may be enforceable, the record does not substantiate that agreement here. Finally, we find no merit to the husbands remaining claims that he should have been awarded a divorce on his cross-complaint and that the court erred in granting an additional attorneys fee and costs on appeal.
