Supreme Court declines to intervene in custody case involving newborn with heart condition

The Supreme Court declined to intervene in a multistate custody battle involving a newborn with a heart condition. The dispute arose after a surrogate refused to perform an abortion despite requests from the California biological parents following the fetus's diagnosis. The surrogate had asked the justices to block a court order that granted custody to the biological parents. The high court ultimately chose not to get involved in the legal fight over surrogacy and the resulting custody.
