Florida Couple Keep Custody of Baby After IVF Clinic Allegedly Implanted Wrong Embryo
A Florida couple said DNA tests showed that the daughter born after their IVF treatment was not genetically related to either of them. They allege that the fertility clinic implanted the wrong embryo. The couple filed a lawsuit seeking answers about the alleged mix-up and the whereabouts of their remaining embryos. They said the discovery came after they noticed their daughter did not appear to share their ancestry. They later reached a private agreement with the child’s biological parents that allows them to retain permanent custody. The case has renewed concerns about embryo identification, fertility-clinic safeguards and the legal complexities of IVF errors.
