This is the first report I've seen of a decision from the court. It seems contrary to the holding of North Florida Women's Health & Counseling v. State of Florida (FL, 2003).

Not only does a minor have a right to choose, it is against Florida common law, made at the highest level, to even require court permission for a minor to obtain an abortion. Further, it is against Florida common law to require a doctor to advise a parent of a minor's decision to have an abortion.

When under DCF, I believe the court becomes the final say.
