Superior Court of Pennsylvania September 19, 1996 (J.A.L. v. E.P.H.)

BECK, Judge:

We are asked to decide whether appellant J.A.L., the former lesbian life partner of appellee E.P.H., has standing to petition for partial custody of the child born to E.P.H. during their relationship. We conclude that the trial court erred in denying standing to J.A.L. Therefore, we reverse and remand for consideration of appellant’s petition for partial custody.

Appellant J.A.L.
