章节摘录

  D.Notetaking Preparation  1.Prelecture Reading  Before listening to a rather difficult lecture on the U.S.1egal system,read a related passage dealing with precedents and surrogate mother-hood,and then answer the comprehension questions that follow.Although somewhat difficult,the reading and the questions will prepare you for the lecture you will hear later.  The Baby M Case  The Babv M case became a controversial legal case in the United States in 1988.At issue were Baby M’s custody and the validity of a contract.The contract provided that a woman,the surrogate motherJ would have a baby for an in/ertile couple by artificial insemination of、 the husbands sperm and would receive payment for this service.Cer. tainly,Babv M was not the first baby born to a surrogate mother but in this case。the surrogate motheL Mary Beth Whitehead.Gould, changed her mind after the baby was born and did not want to give the baby up,as she had agreed to do in the contract.The Sterns,the couple who had contracted for the baby,insisted that Ms.Whitehead. Gould fulfill the terms of the contract,and they took her to court. The New Jersey Supreme Court ruled that this type of contract was against public policy(the good of the general public)and,therefore, could not be enforced.《However,the court did award custody of the baby to the biological father.The mother,Ms.Whitehead.Gould,was awarded limited visitation rights.)This particular ruling was very important because there had been no previous court decision of this type at the level of a state supreme court.Therefore,this decision establishes a precedent for other states when they have to deal with the issue of surrogacy.
