The circumstances under which the case was brought (by a non-custodial parent of a minor in the minor's name) were questionable from the outset. The Supremes don't tend to build upon a shaky foundation, so they tossed the original decision, which was similarly shaky based upon the inherent right to bring suit on the part of the father of the child.
