I'm confused..the first paragraph you stated she had agreed to allow him to have it when he was a baby.. But your last paragraph says they fought over it and she finally agreed when he was 2....??
And yes the dad took her to court because she was breaking the contract BUT she is the one who made this into a media circus...the judge even ordered her and all her groups TO STOP using her child's name ..she claims all this is to protect her son ..YET ..she has made sure his name was all over the media.. She is worried about his penis but not his mental state .. His name should NEVER have been out there.. He will be joked about this for the rest of his life..
Just to make this clear ..I do not think he should have it done now . let him grow up and make hown own decision.. And I imagine this mom has probably made him SCARED TO DEATH...
It's been in multiple news articles but I will explain it and give links.
This all started when he was a baby. The mother and father had a 6 month relationship. She got pregnant. In 2010 she filed a paternity suit against the father. In 2011-12 she ended up agreeing to circumcise him, she signed late dec. 2011, the father early jan 2012 and it was filed before the courts in jan 2012. The father was supposed to pay for it and get it done, he didn't do it in a timely fashion. The mother then decided he was to old and it was unnecessary and revoked consent. The father took her to court to try and enforce the parenting agreement.
The doctor who testified to the court did so by phone, with no notary present to verify taking the oath (against the law). The doctor also lied in his testimony and said that
only men who are uncircumcised have a risk of penile cancer (which is untrue). He testified that it was medically unnecessary to have it done all the while suggesting it should be done. This doctor is the very same one who was originally going to do the circumcision. He is not an expert witness or anything of the likes.
The mom has been trying to fight this legally for over a year now. She ran because her legal options are dwindling. The judge is on an ego trip (it's the highest profile case he's had in his 2.5 years as a judge) and doesn't have to bear the final outcome. He is being reassigned to a different court division as part of a regular reassignment and rotation next month. There will be a new judge step in to hear the appeals (which her lawyers have said they will apply for). All parties were given a gag order after the judge forced the mom to sign giving consent.
In April the mom filed a federal suit against the dad, the judge and the sheriff's office. Last week, before she was forced to sign consent in circuit court, the federal judge withheld from giving a ruling (probably because she still had circuit court case under way) but told the father's lawyers they cannot do the circumcision without giving at least 10 days notice to the courts. More than likely because it then gives the federal judge time to make a ruling.
