(CP) -- A Protestant couple from Oakner, Man., has won a long battle for permission to adopt an eight- year-old Roman Catholic girl. Judge John C. Kerr Monday allowed an application by Mr. and Mrs. Ivan L. Fleming to adopt Francine Beaulieu. The application had been ap- posed by the girl's mother, Mrs. Albert Dufault, the former' Theresa Beaulieu, of St. Vital, Man. Francine was placed in foster home care with the Flemings in February, 1961. The Flemings applied in 1964 to adopt Francine but Judge Kerr ruled last November that while the girl's best interests would be served by remaining with the Flemings he was bound by law to give custody to her natural parent, The Flemings took their case to Manitoba court of appeal, which unanimously ruled that a 1961 amendment to the Mani- toba Child-Welfare Act precedes a section of the act which for- bids adoption of a child by a couple of a different religious faith than the child's natural mother. The amendment allows a county court judge to grant an absolute decree of adoption without consent of the chilg's parents if two. provisions are met: The child has been main- tained for at least five years by the persons who are apply- ing for the adoption; the judge finds it is in the best interests of the child that the adoption take place.
