DONALD MELVIN LYNN, APPELLANT, v. RUTH R. LYNN, APPELLEE.

PER CURIAM.

The trial court in a dissolution judgment ordered husband/appellant to pay child support to a child born during the marriage who both parties admitted was not biologically appellant's child. We reverse. There is no legal duty to provide support for a child who is not a party's natural or adopted child and for whose care the party has not contracted. Taylor v. Taylor, 279 So.2d 364 (Fla. 4th DCA 1973); Bostwick v. Bostwick, 346 So.2d 150 (Fla. 1st DCA 1977).

REVERSED.

MILLS, Acting C.J., and ERVIN and MELVIN, JJ., concur.
