Judgment, 23 March 1988.
The High Court at Cretail, France, ordered the dissolution of the Saint-Sarah association of surrogate mothers. It took this action because it concluded that the association had violated laws on filiation and parental authority and because of the precarious legal situation of the children of surrogate mothers, among other things.
