"Robert Albon, who calls himself Joe Donor, was not entitled to be declared the father of a four-year-old child because he was running an illegal sperm donation business, Britain's most senior family court judge ruled."
"He was described by family court judges as a man who lacks empathy and only has superficial relationships with others and who seeks to control others to prove that he is right, to secure recognition, to get his own way and to serve his own ends."
"While there was no doubt he was the genetic father in this case, Sir Andrew McFarlane, the president of the family division, ruled it was contradictory to public policy for him to be named as a legal parent."
Robert Albon, known as Joe Donor, lost a legal battle to be recognized as the father of a child conceived with his sperm. The court ruled against him due to his illegal sperm donation business. Albon has previously sought access to children he fathered, including gaining custody in one case. Despite claiming to have fathered 180 children, he has been accused of targeting vulnerable women. The court emphasized that naming him as a legal parent contradicts public policy due to his past behavior.
