Vermont - Virginia Lesbian Custody Battle Update

By Christopher

A Vermont judge dissolved the civil union between two lesbians who have been fighting in court over custody of their child.

The women, Isabella Miller and Janet Jenkins, had moved to Vermont after having a baby together, but the relationship soured and the child's biological mom, Ms. Miller, moved back to Virginia with the child. She claims to be "ex-gay" and enlisted the help of a right-wing legal group to try to prevent the non-biological mom from seeing their child.

This case isn't over yet; I'll keep you posted.
