Adoption Reform In Ohio, Kathleen Haack Hartley Jan 1975

Adoption Reform In Ohio, Kathleen Haack Hartley

Cleveland State Law Review

This note will treat the three areas of the proposed Ohio Adoption Reform bill which seem significant: the need for agency consent in adoption proceedings; the rights of putative fathers in adoption proceedings; and independent adoptions. While a complete separation of the social and legal consequences of the proposed changes is not always possible, this note will focus primarily on the legal ramifications in these particular areas by sampling the laws of various states with an emphasis on Ohio law as it relates to the proposed adoption procedure.


Artificial Insemination - A Model Statute, Leonard G. Kamlet Jan 1975

Artificial Insemination - A Model Statute, Leonard G. Kamlet

Cleveland State Law Review

The increasing incidence of artificial inseminations in the fifties and sixties resulted in a profusion of commentary devoted to the significance of the procedure. Characteristic of the motivations of many writers were the moral, psychological, and social implications of the technique. In contrast, the creative legal response was limited. Paralleling the stagnation of judicial and legislative action in most states, the number of commentators addressing the issue in recent years has been minimal. This comment hopes to focus the attention of legislators on the need to clarify the morass surrounding artificial insemination.
