Justice Elena Kagan rejected West's request for the Supreme Court to intervene and block the California custody order. Kagan issued a Tuesday order with no written decision. West had argued in her filing that a 'life hangs in the balance' and that she feared the baby would not receive proper medical care from his parents.
“She's making us run from doctor to doctor, state to state with our baby. She's trying to take him.”
