Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

paternity/ back child support

Mother filed for support 2 years after child's birth. I knew nothing about the child before hand. Will i have to pay back child support if i am the father? i am married and have 2 other kids with my wife, will they take into account the support i provide for those kids when calculating support for this child?

Re: paternity/ back child support

Under Oklahoma law, you would have to pay back support upto five years. You should check Florida law, if that is where the mother and child live.
