Father's Suit Against Family Planning Clinic Dismissed

Yesterday's Corpus Christie (TX) Caller reported that a Texas federal district court has dismissed a lawsuit against a family planning clinic brought by a father who objected to the clinic's giving his 14-year old daughter the "morning after pill." He said that this violated her religious and moral training. South Texas Family Planning in Kingsville (TX), however, contended that federal guidelines for its grant funds preclude requiring parental consent to dispense so-called "Plan B."
