Child Support Responsibility: What the Law Says

The father's responsibility for child support is a matter of great relevance, governed by the Italian Civil Code. Article 96 of the Code of Civil Procedure (c.p.c.) provides for aggravated penalties for those who intentionally omit income and asset data in order to evade this obligation.

Support Obligations: A Matter of Responsibility

According to our legal system, child support is a fundamental duty of parents, regardless of their marital status. Failure to fulfill this obligation can lead to significant legal consequences.

The Implications of Art. 96 c.p.c.

Article 96 c.p.c. introduces an additional burden for those who, in an attempt to evade support, omit or falsify information about their income and assets. This behavior not only compromises the well-being of the children but can also lead to severe legal penalties.

"The intentional omission of income data is a serious act that undermines trust in the legal system."
  • Transparency: It is essential to accurately declare one's income and assets.
  • Penalties: Consequences may include fines and, in some cases, criminal proceedings.
  • Protection of Children's Rights: The law prioritizes the right of children to receive adequate financial support.
