Legal Question in Family Law in California

That's an interesting situation. I have never personally known a case where the child is miscarried and the other party is seeking reimbursement for costs of preganancy. You should speak with a civil litigation attorney, since I don't see how the family courts would deal with this case. There needs to be a baby for the family court to be able to hear the matter. In paternity cases the mother has a right to seek reimbursement for costs of pregnancy, but that is when there is a child between the parties. Here there is no child, so I don't know how she would proceed in family court. So it is unclear to me how the mother would proceed via a law suit. That is not to say that it could not happen. It may very well happen in the arena of the superior court civil division, not the family court.

For self represented individuals you can consult with the family law facilitator self help center at your local court house.

As always please consult a local attorney prior to taking legal action. Good luck. Also please check out my Santa Clara County Family Lawyer blog.
