Kansas Supreme Court recognizes wrongful pregnancy action
The Kansas Supreme Court ruled that plaintiffs may sue for damages following an unsuccessful sterilization, overturning a lower dismissal in the Johnston case. The decision allows recovery for pregnancy related pain and medical costs but not for the birth, while affirming related annexation and attorney fee rulings and upholding a blue river sewer district case and an insurance dispute.
