Judge McGuire cited that Oklahoma’s Uniform Parentage Act doesn’t take into account same-sex marriage. “Show me where the case law says that gay people have to adopt their own children?” Hopkins asked.
It’s black and white,” the attorney said, noting it would not have happened to heterosexual couples. “Kris is on the birth certificate of this child and were married,” Hopkins stressed, meaning the boy was “a child of the marriage.” Williams’ attorney, Robyn Hopkins, plans to appeal what she called “the first kind of case with these facts.” She knowingly chose not to pursue it.” Harlan Vaughn has been a donor to at least 13 other babies, according to KFOR. “The reality is that the law provides a legal remedy available to Williams.

On Monday, Oklahoma district Judge Lynne McGuire ruled the sperm donor was the legal parent along with Wilson. Kris Williams lost custody of her child to her sperm donor Harlan Vaughn. In court filings, Wilson said she was co-parenting with Vaughn - who appears to have been a donor to at least 13 other babies, KFOR previously noted. The women split when the boy was 2 - and Wilson moved in with her sperm donor, Harlan Vaughn, whom she’d first contacted through Just A Baby, an app for such donations. However, she was not named on an earlier sperm donor agreement Wilson signed and never legally adopted the boy to establish parental rights, as required by Oklahoma law.
