Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson doesn't shy away from speaking out when she thinks her colleagues are wrong. And she just filed a solo dissent over this abortion appeal. (via Deadline: Legal Blog)
on Monday, in a case involving abortion, where Jackson wrote alone to explain that she thought her fellow justices handled the matter improperly.
The case stemmed from a 17-year-old who was pregnant in 2018. Called Jane Doe in court filings, she sought an abortion through Missouri state court procedures that would have let her get one without parental consent. But the court clerk, Michelle Chapman, said she had to notify Doe’s parents. Doe got an abortion in Illinois and sued Chapman in federal court for violating her rights.
In her dissent, Jackson said that she would"not add this far-from-exceptional case" to the"growing list" of cases vacated by the Supreme Court.
