    Wicklund v. Lambert.

    Abstract

    KIE:

    The U.S. District Court for the District of Montana held Montana's Parental Notice of Abortion Act constitutional on the grounds that the state law does not violate the federal equal protection clause and that the judicial bypass procedure as specified in the Act adequately protects privacy, anonymity, and confidentiality. The court recognized that Montana had a legitimate state interest in protecting the well-being of minor, pregnant females. The court determined that the Act's specific provisions, and not the general provisions of the state's Youth Court Act, applied to the parental notification bypass in cases involving a minor's abortion.
