I don't think the got any chance of winning this lawsuit.
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local...story.html

Quote:A white Ohio woman is suing a Downers Grove-based sperm bank, alleging that the company mistakenly gave her vials from an African-American donor, a fact that she said has made it difficult for her and her same-sex partner to raise their now 2-year-old daughter in an all-white community.

there are some snippets of the actual lawsuit if you read the article linked.
seems like the happy ending they wanted was to live in a "white" community with their "white" baby.

Shouldn't minorities stick together?

Lesbians and AI, always an interesting and frequently complicated topic.

The few couples I've encountered had at least one spouse willing to AI at home with her partner's brother's semen.

Apparently this wasn't an option this occasion. I've been apprised having 'male stuff' in her body by a friend of mine was psychologically very, very tough, and I am thinking having the "wrong" male stuff would have been devastating. Curiously from what little of the article I could read before the paywall slammed shut, their lawyers think they can get more mileage from the race angle.

I'm not a lawyer, but I'm not thinking I agree.

Quote:After searching through pages of comprehensive histories for their top three donors, the lawsuit claims, Cramblett and her domestic partner, Amanda Zinkon, chose donor No. 380, who was also white. Their doctor in Ohio received vials from donor No. 330, who is African-American, the lawsuit said.

Seems like a simple case of negligence which is addressable as a civil matter. Someone at the sperm bank had the wrong glasses on.

Even racists have rights to sue in America.

She apparently knew of the mistake at 5 months pregnant. She could have had an abortion at that point.

I think this fact weakens her case.

I don't see where that absolves the sperm bank from liability for their negligence.

Besides....I thought you were a big fucking fan of fetuses?

Black fetuses are an exception

Weird perusing a catalog of sperm donors.

I just look at pictures on Craigslist . . . . .

It took me a bit of time to get that
