Top Arizona court: Divorced woman can't use frozen embryos The Arizona Supreme Court says a woman can't use her frozen embryos to have a baby because her ex-husband doesn't want to have childrenPHOENIX -- A woman can't use her frozen embryos to have a baby over opposition from her ex-husband under terms of the contract they signed with a fertility clinic, the Arizona Supreme Court ruled Thursday. Both courts got it wrong, according to the Supreme Court. The lower courts ruled that a contract clause allowed courts to determine whether to donate or implant the embryos. “We’re disappointed of course, but the Supreme Court says what the law is so we have to abide by it,” said Stanley Murray, Torres' lawyer. "But the Supreme Court said, ‘No, the contract does cover this.’"The Arizona Legislature changed the law in 2018 in response to Torres' case.
