Surrogate who refused abortion over heart defect takes custody battle to US Supreme Court

After West travelled to the state, Republican Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton intervened in the case and won an emergency court order requiring that the boy receive medical care in the state.

West has argued that the biological parents should not have custody because she worries they would not give the boy necessary medical care because they sought to abort the child after learning of the life-threatening condition.

West argued that without intervention from the Supreme Court, she would no longer have access to information about the child's medical condition.
