Abstract
The legal requirements for access to medically assisted procreation are experiencing some praetorian damage as if they were no longer adapted to today's society. Recently, the “Assemblée du contentieux du Conseil d’État” came to “scratch” the spirit of Article L. 2141-2 of the Code of public health in its judgment of 31 May 2016 by ordering the Assistance Publique–Hôpitaux of Paris and the Biomedicine Agency to carry out the export of gametes of a deceased man in Spain. In its decision, the Conseil d’État do not respects the legal prohibition of export gametes filed in France and intended to be used abroad, for purposes that are prohibited in the country: the post-mortem procreation. The prohibition of posthumous reproduction, weakened by the recent decision of the Conseil d’État, is the result of a clearly stated and maintained will of the French legislature (Section 1). This additional Praetorian affect against legal conditions of access to medically assisted procreation generates inequalities and creates an unsustainable situation (Section 2).
