Multnomah County Circuit Judge Melvin Oden-Orr issued an oral ruling Thursday finding that the plaintiffs have standing — in other words, that there’s a valid allegation of harm that could be fixed by winning a lawsuit.

Buckler interviewed two former members of the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) 2012 Circumcision Task Force: Douglas Diekema, MD, MPH, the task force’s bioethicist; and Andrew Freedman, MD, a pediatric urologist. Both have acknowledged their role in the AAP’s 2012 circumcision policy statement, and both have retracted their positions.
