A married lesbian couple filed for legal parenthood of their daughter, but was denied by the Utah Health Department. They are now suing the department for not offering equal rights to them as their heterosexual counterparts currently have. Had they been a man-woman couple, the process would have gone through with no questions.
The office said the couple would have to go through a difficult step-parent process to both be legal parents. The Utah Health Department stated that they will seek an option that best suits all parties
