Jury Awards $397K To Woman After Unwanted Pregnancy

UPPER MARLBORO, Md. (AP) — A Prince George’s County jury has awarded $397,000 to a couple who had a fourth child less than a year after the wife underwent surgery to prevent her from becoming pregnant again.

The Daily Record of Baltimore reports the jury ruled in favor of Chivonne and William Posey on Nov. 5.

Court records say Dr. Paul D. Rogers advised Chivonne Posey to undergo sterilization surgery after the couple told him they didn’t want more children. Rogers performed the surgery in January 2011, but several months later, Posey became pregnant. She had a son later that year.

I'm sorry but there has to be more to this story! I myself elected to have surgery to prevent anymore children, and I had to sign a release form stating that the surgery MAY NOT BE SUCCESSFUL!!!!!!

What a blessing another child to love and cash to go with it.
