A Mother in a same-sex marriage that was not the Mother who had the child through artificial insemination may not be the child’s legal parent. The Arizona Court of Appeals, Division One, recently ruled in Turner v. Korbin that the former wife of a woman who gave birth via artificial insemination is not the child’s legal parent. This ruling goes against the Arizona Court of Appeals, Division Two’s ruling in the similar case of McLaughlin v. Jones. The courts expressed different opinions as to whether Arizona’s paternity statute A.R.S.§ 25-814 shall be read gender-neutrally or as only applying to men. The Arizona Supreme Court will rule on this issue shortly to clarify the courts position on this issue.
