SECTION 581-407

Insufficient surrogacy agreement

Family Court Act (FCT) CHAPTER 686, ARTICLE 5-C, PART 4

§ 581-407. Insufficient surrogacy agreement. If a surrogacy agreement
does not meet the material requirements of this article, the agreement
is not enforceable and the court shall determine parentage based on the
intent of the parties, taking into account the best interests of the
child. An intended parent's absence of genetic connection to the child
is not a sufficient basis to deny that individual a judgment of legal
parentage.
