Supreme Court of Connecticut
Bilbao v. Goodwin
November 5, 2019333 Conn. 599
Summary
The court held that the parties' written agreement selecting disposal of their cryopreserved pre-embryos upon divorce was the proper starting point for determining their disposition and was enforceable. The agreement contained definite terms, mutual promises supplied consideration, and the use of checkboxes did not invalidate it. The court therefore directed disposition in accordance with the agreement and did not reach the defendant's alternative property, preservation, or human-life arguments.
