U.S. Supreme Court blocks Alabama lesbian mother adoption ruling
Source: Reuters
The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday blocked an Alabama judicial ruling that refused to recognize a gay woman's parental rights over three children she adopted with her lesbian partner and raised from birth.
In an unsigned order, the court said the case would be put on hold while the woman, named in court papers as V.L., files a formal appeal of the September ruling by the Alabama Supreme Court.
Lawyers for the woman say the Alabama ruling "effectively stripped V.L. of parental rights over the children she had raised since they were born."
The National Center for Lesbian Rights, which represents V.L., said she will now have visitation rights, having not seen the children since April.
