Pa court makes landmark custody ruling
The Pennsylvania Superior Court has overturned a 25-year-old legal precedent that presented gay parents with an added obstacle in child-custody cases.
On Jan. 21, the court struck down the “special evidentiary presumption” instituted by a 1985 Supreme Court panel decision that placed a burden on proof on gay parents to demonstrate that their same-sex relationship wouldn’t harm their children.
