Orlando, Florida - An American man accused of having sex with a girl without telling her he has the AIDS virus has been ordered to have future sex partners sign a form stating they are aware of his health condition. The sex-consent form is part of Jerrime Day's probation for having sex with a 16-year-old girl who claimed she didn't know he was HIV positive. Day, 20, entered a no contest plea Wednesday to the misdemeanour charge.

Judge Deb Blechman said the forms are her way of making sure others aren't blindly exposed to the disease. Under the terms of his probation, Day must get the written permission from his sex partner before having sexual intercourse and then show it to his probation officer. The forms must be signed in front of a witness. Once his probation ends in 9 1/2 months, Day won't be obligated to get written permission, said his attorney, Timothy Hartung.
