The 5th Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a Texas law requiring parental consent to obtain contraception for minors.from U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk in Amarillo, that ended one of the only avenues for Texas teens to confidentially obtain birth control, through federally funded family planning clinics., found parental consent required for minors’ medical treatment under the Texas Family Code does not conflict with federal law that allows U.S.
The case was filed by Jonathan Mitchell, a former Texas solicitor general, the legal architect behind the 2021 Texas law that banned abortion after the sixth week of pregnancy. U.S. Department of Justice attorneys had argued in 2022 and again last year in New Orleans that Deanda had no standing to bring the case forward. The three-judge panel ruled Deanda did have standing because the program prevents him from exercising his parental rights to consent to his child’s medical care.
The group filed an amicus brief in the case before the 5th Circuit but had little comment about the ruling late Tuesday.
