Surrogate Mother Refuses Abortion, Now Sues for Custody of Born Child

The US Supreme Court declined to intervene in the case of a surrogate mother who refused an abortion and is now seeking custody of her child, McKenna West. The court's decision does not address the mother's refusal to terminate the pregnancy, leaving the case unresolved. West gave birth to a boy under a surrogacy arrangement that included a contract specifying she would deliver the baby to its intended parents. The court's inaction allows the case to proceed, potentially resulting in West gaining custody of her child.
