Ohio Judge Moves in Right Direction for Gestational Surrogacy
A judge in the state of Ohio took an encouraging step in the right direction for Assisted Reproduction Law. The judge ruled in favor of a single father, who used IVF and surrogacy to conceive his twins. However, he was not listed on the birth certificate; instead the surrogate was listed as the only known parent because Ohio state law did not recognize surrogacy. The judge in this case rule that the father’s name could be put on the birth certificate as the children’s biological parent. This is a huge step for surrogacy in the state of Ohio.
