Same-Sex Couple Files Suit over Child’s Death Certificate

February 15th, 2012 | Author: | Category: notable lawsuits

An Iowa same-sex couple has filed a lawsuit against the state  health department after one of their names was removed from  their stillborn child’s death certificate. The lawsuit cites  state law that provides the same spousal assumption of  parentage to same-sex spouses as it does to different-sex  spouses. The suit demands both names be put on the death certificate and a court order declaring the state’s actions  unconstitutional.   Jeff Eckhoff, DesMoines Register   02/08/2012
