Stanley v. Illinois : ウィキペディア英語版 | Stanley v. Illinois Stanley v. State of Illinois, 405 U.S. 645 (1972), was a landmark United States Supreme Court case in which the Court, in a 7-2 ruling, held that the fathers of children born out of wedlock had a fundamental right to their children. Up until this ruling, when the mother of a child born out of wedlock was unable to care for the child, either through death or other circumstances, the child was made a ward of the state and placed in either an orphanage, foster care, or given up for adoption. == The Case ==
Joan & Peter Stanley had lived together off and on for 18 years, having three children together. When Joan Stanley died, the state held a dependency proceeding and declared the three minor children to be wards of the state, placing them with court appointed guardians. Peter Stanley appealed this decision, as the state had never provided him a hearing to determine whether he was a fit parent, as would have happened for a married father under similar circumstances. Mr. Stanley claimed that this violated his Fourteenth Amendment right of equal protection.
