	Fla. Priest Gets Equal Time and Custody of Child Miami Herald September 29, 2010 http://www.miamiherald.com/2010/09/29/1848969/fla-priest-gets-equal-time-and.html PEMBROKE PINES, Fla. -- A South Florida priest on indefinite leave will get equal time and custody of the child he conceived with a former stripper. David Dueppen's attorney, Raymond Rafool, confirmed Wednesday that his client and the child's mother, Beatrice Hernandez, entered into a settlement agreement earlier this week. Under the agreement, which must be finalized by a judge, Dueppen will also pay monthly child support. Dueppen joined the priesthood in 1999 and stepped away in August after Hernandez approached the archdiocese. He is no longer a practicing priest. Hernandez says she's been Dueppen's on-again, off-again girlfriend for seven years. Hernandez's attorney, Michael Feiler, says he is "hopeful and optimistic that they can learn to coexist and be good parents together."
