A mix-up at a British in vitro fertilization clinic that left a white couple with black twins was taken to the High Court.
Few details are known, but the case is believed to involve a black couple who were trying for a test-tube baby at the same time.
Although it is not clear whether another couple has laid claim to the children, legal experts say the judge will be expected to decide who should be considered the babies’ legal parents.
A gag order forbids any party to name the parents or the clinic.
