Deaf Mutes Adoption Is Upheld by State Supreme Court
The State Supreme Court refused to intervene in the Carson deaf mute couple Wayne Christensen and his wife seeking to adopt 21 month old Scott James Richardson. The seven member court upheld an appellate ruling that threw out the lower court edict barring the adoption, unless the case is taken to the U S Supreme Court. Scott has been in the care of Christensens’ sister in Inglewood during the proceedings. The Christensens had earlier fostered the child since he was a month old but were denied adoption on grounds they could not provide a normal home because they are deaf mutes.
