Lawyers for 29-year-old Gavin Mellor, who has served five years of a life jail term for murdering a pensioner, told the High Court that Home Secretary Jack Straw's 1998 ruling denied both Mellor and his 25-year-old wife Tracey basic rights. The case is believed to be the first time a prisoner has taken legal action against the government over the right to parenthood via artificial insemination. ``Whether Mr. and Mrs Mellor should bring a child into the world is a matter for them and not a matter for the Secretary of State,'' Mellor's lawyer David Pannick QC told the court. ``Mrs Mellor is an ordinary member of society,'' he added. ''The decision impacts on her as well as her husband. We say that is a factor which should be taken into account.'' Mellor married his former prison service worker wife three years ago while in prison, and the couple fear she could be too old to conceive a child by the time he is released in seven years' time at the earliest. In his 1998 ruling, Straw refused Mellor's request saying he was concerned over how stable his marriage was, given that ``it did not exist before your imprisonment and has not been tested under normal circumstances.''
