  • CIVIL RIGHTS VICTORY IN SJC'S PARTANEN DECISION
    The Women’s Bar Association signed on to an amicus brief in the case of Karen Partanen v. Julie Gallagher – supporting the position which would extend protections to non-married parents who used assisted reproductive technology to conceive a child. In its recent decision, the Supreme Judicial Court effectively rendered the Massachusetts paternity statute (MGL c. 209C) gender neutral by holding that parentage may be established so long as a non-married couple intended to create a child together and each of them outwardly represented themselves as the child’s parents. Congratulations to everyone – including Mary Bonauto, C. Thomas Brown, Patience Crozier and WBA members Elizabeth A. Roberts, Teresa Harkins La Vita, and Joyce Kaufmann representing the plaintiff - who worked on this case and helped extend protections to same sex couples and their children.
