Stephen F. Melinger adopted twins in 2005 from a surrogate mother, but the Indiana high court is concerned about false statements given by Melingers attorney, Steven Litz.
During adoption proceedings, the high court found, Litz had told a Hamilton County, Ind., court Melinger lived in Indianapolis when in fact he had lived in Union City, N.J., for 10 years, according to an Oct. 2 United Press International (UPI) article.
The Supreme Court is allowing the twin girls, now 4-years-old, to stay with Melinger, while the case is reviewed, the UPI reported.
