Has Her Life Been A Lie? (Double Episode) | Paternity Court

[@sydan-wv9tm]

the first one was heartwarming because the connection they have cant be broken by some biological bs ❤ wish them the very best.

[@tjneverdefeated4394]

Olivia Smith has a terrible attitude. She should be humble but it’s all an act. Trying to recover from the last child not being his. Glad the judge checked her.

[@jtag9807]

That last case...smh. Olivia had the nerve to demand respect while at the same time being disrespectful. As if she didn't previously drag them in court to find out the baby didn't belong to Jovan's family. The audacity!

[@JaneDoe-ql7sc]

That baby sure looks exactly like Jovan Sr.! So heartfelt of joy watching the baby's grandma holding little Jovan Junior. Jovan & the young woman made a beautiful baby together, & that baby will be blessed by having the poignant love of the mother of his father in addition to his mother's precious motherly love. Praise the Lord!

[@ednaatluxton4918]

That woman flipping her fake hair laughing when the judge explained the mom only had a picture frame left was cold & disgusting then arguing that she had no right to know the boy or see him if he's her grandchild like she claims is so selfish & sick. I have no clue why any man would get involved with her. The poor kids.

[@veebaby5537]

She said she takes care of ALL her kids... Shidddd how many

[@Ana_Ines3420]

For what we heard, it is apparent more than two men felt attracted enough to mess with her. "I provide for ALL my kids"!

[@dude3277]

Can only hope the child she’s raising will grow up and be a upright and stable man.

[@Falcon-mc5fs]

With an attitude like the last woman, she will lose that child all on her own when he grows up to find out about a paternal family that wanted him but couldn't get access. Hope she changes

[@traceylawrence7363]

I understand that she was offended. But does she understand that the last child was not his. And so them grandma was lost because she didn’t know if this girl stepped out on her son again or not. I get that she’s hurt, but she should be hurt and be accountable for how her behavior helps shape and mold that situation.

[@Falcon-mc5fs]

@@traceylawrence7363 I agree with you. The grandmother could have done things better but the mother is spiteful and the child will end up despising her if she's not careful

[@velvetnightmare3133]

Jovan was shot by his younger brother Dequan!! If the article is correct. Horrible.

[@TinkletitsMcGee]

Thank you I was curious

[@veebaby5537]

😳

[@traceylawrence7363]

Wow. Did both boys have the same mom? Because if that’s the case, I can see why the mom is having so much pain and doubt. I think that you have to empathy for the other person and not just being in your own feelings.

[@pattichurch3693]

Yes you do, but if your referring to the mother of Jovan, then know the young lady did at first lie about the first baby and set herself up for this completely.

[@my7thoughts7exactly63]

Olivia’s behavior is shameful. Men have kids with anyone.

[@ednaatluxton4918]

I hope grandma went to court for legal rights to see the grandchild regularly.

[@ericamartin7238]

Grandparents don’t have any official legal rights (at least here in the states). She can ask for visitation, but she’ll be at the mercy of the mom’s discretion.

[@ednaatluxton4918]

@ericamartin7238 with her son dead she can get rights in the courts. Rights aren't inherent but given through family court. Even for estranged parents. Many parents aren't fit to have rights or be with the child unsupervised. This is why judges make the decision.

[@ericamartin7238]

@@ednaatluxton4918 Hi - I didn’t say she couldn’t get rights, I said that she doesn’t have official legal rights, i.e., any entitlement to see the child. The rights you are discussing are contingent on the mother being unfit. Assuming the mother is fit (while she is wild, we have no reason to believe she is unfit based on the information we have), grandma doesn’t automatically get rights because she applied for visitation. The mother’s wishes are the number 1 factor that judges consider when it comes to visitation to her child and determining what is in the best interest of the child. I only commented because your comment came across like grandma could just go to court and get rights to see the child, so I wrote to clarify that it’s not necessarily that easy because she doesn’t have an automatic right to visitation like her son would. P.S. I’m a lawyer :) Disclaimer: I am not providing legal advice, simply engaging in a conversation.

[@loversofanimal]

@@ericamartin7238not true. There are grandparents rights through legislation. It depends on the state you live in. I stand 10 toes down on this!

[@Kayla-jy6vh]

@@ericamartin7238hey umm I think it just might be in your state. In my state the grandparents can have legal rights of their grandchild if their child has passed away and if the mother/father isn’t fit (or if something’s wrong.) also I see it a lot in my state the grandparents of the deceased parent gaining the parental rights from that side .🤔🤔yk each state has different laws pertaining to these type of cases 🙁

[@karmagal78]

Love the first case. That man, even though he’s not the father, he has shown what it means to be a dad.

[@abi-janerivero4085]

Disgusting how the last one act and did to that mother! I wouldn’t have want a women like that to be the mother of my child!

[@evonjohnson4078]

I was hoping that the result would be the other way. She's horrible.

[@mariambangura605]

Definitely she will reap what she's sowing now fair enough she has boys as children

[@lynnmoses3563]

That poor grandmother in last case, not only did she lose both her sons (one son accidentally shot the other), but she has to lose her grandson as well...This woman isnt going to let her see him...Shes a vile creature who will have a son who grows up resenting females because of her...Children need family...This mother wont have learned a thing by this...And she will lose her son because of her attitude...Awful behaviour....

I didn’t either. Her behavior. That girl got on my nerves so bad! You lie so much and admit to lying, but we supposed to just take her word for it.

[@TinkletitsMcGee]

This ain’t a double episode it’s a triple episode

[@BUGt95.]

The last case I feel for the mother (potential grandma), the other girl yes girl cuz she needs to grow up is a complete Capital B

[@lillianwilliams5510]

What is the point in learning who is the father. If the mother does not plan to get child support. Not that the child is just a check. should know their parents. I don't understand how a father's family helps support a child, but the father does not have a job unless, he is incarcerated or disabled or mentally ill but if receiving any government support. The child would still be eligible for government assistance.

[@blurp9347]

This was such a good watch

Ughh 🙄

[@monicawright9197]

I don't blame Olivia I wouldn't want my child going anywhere where I am being spoken about badly. My heart goes out to the grandmother who lost her son but if she thought that might have been her grandchild who cares if she got benefits for him,and she should have been the mature one and treated her better. So with that I don't blame Olivia for how she feels the grandmother needs to apologize.

[@LoveMe0516]

Reality is the first child she attempted to pin on him wasn’t his, his mother having doubt is justified. Olivia’s behavior will only be to the detriment of her son. Simple as that.

[@ednaatluxton4918]

[@PhoenixValkyrie]

If you're denying my child then you don't get any access to my child when it's proven that I was right all along. End of.

[@devinrichardson1171]

But the first kid she supposedly had by him turned out not to be his and she was claiming not to have doubt at that time too. So is there no reason to doubt?

[@TamaraLynn]

That's why it's important not to sign the birth certificate if you have any doubts until you get a DNA test. A lot of men have paid child support for kids that are not even theirs.

[@lillianwilliams5510]

How did the PLANTIF'S mother keep a secret so long, if she thought, the defendant was her father. I think she knew he wasn't the father and if she was in an abusive marriage, she wouldn't have said it to anyone. I wonder how the PLANTIF'S and her mother's life was all those years . I imagine his family thinks she is just after his money or property. If he wants to give the plantif anything. He should do it.while he is alive, because his family may contest the Will. The defendant probably shouldn't have told his family or the court. He had the plantif in his WILL.

[@jg7538]

Mr. Col well have rel nerve and audacity to be complaining about her friend but sending such messages to his friend?

[@debrastone2198]

2nd case - The defendant says if the child isn't the plaintiff's son's child, she doesn't want anything to do with the plaintiff at all. And, even if the test proves the child is the plaintiff's son's, she still doesn't want anything to do with the plaintiff. I'm saying, if the child is the plaintiff's grandchild, she had better find a way to let the child have time for a good relationship with his Grandma, or there will be some bad feelings coming from her son towards her later on!!! Child, you can rant & rage all you want. But in the end, you're going to only hurt your relationship with your son. Then you'll really regret what you said in this courtroom & how you acted! You're only making matters worse!!! It's time to become more mature!!! Thank you to the Judge for gently pushing for the Grandma to be able to see her grandchild, & to the editor of this video for allowing us to watch the precious moment!
