Judge strips Chicago mother of parental rights for not being vaccinated | Washington Examiner

Firlit’s attorney, Annette Fernholz, said the issue was not within Shapiro’s purview.

“You have to understand the father did not even bring this issue before the court. So, it s the judge on his own and making this decision that you can t see your child until you re vaccinated,” Fernholz said.

Jeffrey Leving, who represents the boy’s father, expressed surprise by Shapiro’s decision but said they were supportive.

“There are children who have died because of COVID. I think every child should be safe, and I agree that the mother should be vaccinated,” Leving said.
