An Alabama man is suing an abortion clinic, claiming a fetus he fathered was aborted against his will, and representing the fetus in court in a bizarre legal first that he hopes will make it harder for women to have abortions.<\/p>\n
Ryan Magers is suing Alabama Women\u2019s Center for Reproductive Alternatives for aborting the fetus he says he fathered. Claiming the woman had the abortion against his wishes while he was trying to secure legal counsel to block the procedure, Magers is suing for wrongful death. He\u2019s also filing a second wrongful death suit on behalf of the fetus, after a petition to represent \u201cBaby Roe<\/em>\u201d in court was granted in a stunning legal first.<\/p>\n The crusading man isn\u2019t just suing the Huntsville clinic, either \u2013 he\u2019s also suing the manufacturer of the abortion pills his then-girlfriend took in 2017 and the staff at the clinic who provided the procedure. His lawyer, Brent Helms, told<\/a> WHNT he wants \u201cto make it really difficult for a woman in Alabama to get access to abortion<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n According to Helms, Magers just \u201cwants rights for fathers and unborn babies. And he wants to deter business pill makers and other people who he says profit off abortions<\/em>.\u201d The would-be father was apparently struck with the idea to sue everyone involved with his ex-girlfriend\u2019s abortion the day after the fateful event.<\/p>\n Magers will represent Baby Roe\u2019s estate in court following an unprecedented legal decision by Madison County Probate Judge Frank Barger, who claims he knew he was granting the rights to an aborted fetus, Helms said, contrary to an earlier report<\/a> by WHNT, which suspected the judge was hoodwinked into giving the dead embryo standing in a court of law.\u00a0<\/p>\n The legal documents accompanying the case are an exercise in surrealism, acknowledging that Baby Roe \u2013 who died at the tender age of six weeks after conception, struck down in the prime of gestation by an abortion pill \u2013 \u201cdid not leave behind a will, spouse, or real property, who under the law, could have claims on the estate<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n Like this story?
