Re: Legal Matters

YOU can sue your husband and his father for the recovery of the money that you lend them. Also, should you give birth, you can even sue your Boyfriend for a criminal case of abandonement of minor in relation to Anti Child Abuse. Also you can sue him for support and for filiation.
