A Rare Case Highlights a Broader Issue in Reproductive Law The recent case of baby Rumi, born with a rare heart defect and at the center of a surrogate dispute, has brought attention to the complexities of reproductive law.

Rumi's parents, Omar Ahmed and Nausheen Gilkar, asked their surrogate, McKenna West, to terminate the pregnancy after learning of the heart defect.
