=== Boldt v. Boldt ===
The two briefs indexed here were filed by [[Doctors Opposing Circumcision (D.O.C.)]] with the Oregon Supreme Court in the case of [[Boldt v. Boldt]], where they proved instrumental in changing the direction of that case. They have an excellent summary of American Constitutional law relevant to the non-therapeutic circumcision of male children.
