Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
A.  Upon the validation by the court of a gestational agreement
conforming with the requirements of the Oklahoma Gestational
Agreement Act, any child born as a result of an assisted
reproduction procedure to a gestational carrier under the
gestational agreement shall be considered at law in all respects the
same as a naturally conceived legitimate child of the intended
parents.  The parent-child relationship shall exist solely between
such intended parents and such child regardless of the fact that the
gestational carrier gave birth to the child or that the spouse of
the gestational carrier is or was married to the gestational carrier
at or before the time of such birth.  The gestational carrier and
any spouse of the gestational carrier if she is married shall have
no parental rights or obligations with respect to such child.
B.  A person acting in the capacity of a donor shall not be a
parent of a child conceived as a result of assisted reproduction
under a gestational carrier arrangement and shall have no rights or
obligations with respect to such child.
