Description
Plaintiff taxpayers, on behalf of themselves and other similarly situated taxpayers, appeal the trial court's judgment denying their motion for summary judgment and granting a summary judgment motion filed by defendants, the Colorado Department of Social Services (the Department), its director, and the Colorado Board of Social Services (the Board). Plaintiffs contend on appeal, as they did at trial, that the Department's expenditure of state funds to pay the costs of medical services rendered to certain indigent persons pursuant to the provisions of the Colorado Medical Assistance Act, § 26-4-101 et seq., C.R.S. 1973, is unauthorized insofar as such medical services include the performance of abortions. See generally Dodge v. Department of Social Services, 198 Colo. 379, 600 P.2d 70 (1979). Plaintiffs do not question the constitutionality of any statute or regulation in this case, and defendants agree that their authority is created by statute and has no independent constitutional basis.
