Question

a woman gives birth to a color-blind but otherwise normal daughter. The husband sues for a divorce on the grounds of adultery. Will his case stand up in court?

Answer 1

Adultery- voluntary sexual intercourse between a married person and a person who is not his or her spouse.

From my understanding view point, I don’t think the husband will win this case. The two scenarios for a kid to be color blind is A) Passed down genes from his/her parents or B) The eyes or a part of the brain that helps you see colors get damaged.

In order for the wife to win she has to prove that her daughter has a damaged eye or brain to prove her reason on why she is colorblind, but she could also win by proving that her daughter is his as well from a DNA test.

But the only way for the dad to win is to prove that him and the wife are both NOT colorblind so there was no way that the daughter could’ve have gotten it from their genes and if he can prove to the judge that the daughter isn’t his with a DNA test then he will in fact win the case.

All in all it’s a really rare case that ever happens but it’s a 60/40 chance that the wife will win but it all depends on the evidence and factual support from both sides of the defendants can provide to the court.
