Ross, Spencer B., Finstuen v. Crutcher: The Tenth Circuit Delivers a Significant Victory for Same-Sex Parents with Adopted Children. Denver U. L. Rev. 685-700 (2008).
While some authors are skeptical about the obligation of states to recognize same-sex adoptions from other states (see, for example, the review by Rhonda Wasserman, "Are You Still My Mother?: Interstate Recognition of Adoptions by Gays and Lesbians," 58 Am. U. L. Rev. 1-83 (2008)), the Tenth Circuit finds in Finstuen v. Crutcher, 496 F.3d 1139 (10th Cir. 2007) just such a requirement in the Full Faith and Credit Clause.
