A teenager who is pregnant receives an abortion without parental notice due to "judicial bypass." What does this term signify?
A. The teenager has traveled to another state to obtain the abortion without parental notification.
B. The teenager has obtained approval from a judge for the abortion without parental notification.
C. The state in which the teenager lives allows practitioners to perform abortions without parental consent.
D. The judge has decided that the teenager is an emancipated minor and may receive the abortion without parental notification.
E. The teenager has received approval from a judge to travel to another state to have the abortion.
B. The teenager has obtained approval from a judge for the abortion without parental notification.
In many states, minors seeking an abortion must involve at least one parent in the decision. This means that teenagers who do not tell their parents about a pregnancy must either travel out of state or obtain approval from a judge—a process known as judicial bypass—to obtain an abortion. Currently, the trend is toward state and federal legislation making it increasingly difficult for minors to obtain an abortion without parental involvement.
