Glover v. Junior – Intent Based Parentage

Two weeks ago, on March 20, 2025, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court issued its decision in the case of Glover v. Junior; a landmark decision that adds a fifth pathway to parentage, Intent Based Parentage. This case involved a married female couple who utilized ART (Assisted Reproductive Technology) to conceive a child. The case presents a unique set of facts and references past presumptions under PA Law, but at the end of the day sets forth a new way to establish parentage, by specific Intent.
