§131. Judicial standard
In disputes arising between any parties regarding the in vitro fertilized human
embryo, the dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the terms and provisions of the in
vitro fertilization agreement by the parties. If no such agreement exists, then disputes shall
be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction and in the best interest of the in vitro
fertilized human embryo. Any provision in an in vitro fertilization agreement that directs or
provides for the intentional destruction of an embryo shall be deemed null and void.
