PLANNED PARENTHOOD OF INDIANA AND KENTUCKY, INC., ET AL. ON PETITION FOR WRIT OF CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE SEVENTH CIRCUIT No. 18–483. Decided May 28, 2019 PER CURIAM. Indiana’s petition for certiorari argues that the Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit incorrectly invalidated two new provisions of Indiana law: the first relating to the disposition of fetal remains by abortion providers; and the second barring the knowing provision of sex-, race-, or disability-selective abortions by abortion providers. See Ind. Code §§16−34−2−1.1(a)(1)(K), 16−34−3−4(a), 16−34− 4−4, 16−34−4−5, 16−34−4−6, 16−34−4−7, 16−34− 4−8, 16−41−16−4(d), 16−41−16−5 (2018). We reverse the judgment of the Seventh Circuit with respect to the first question presented, and we deny the petition with respect to the second question presented. I The first challenged provision altered the manner in which abortion providers may dispose of fetal remains. Among other changes, it excluded fetal remains from the definition of infectious and pathological waste, §§16−41−16−4(d), 16−41−16−5, thereby preventing incin- eration of fetal remains along with surgical byproducts. It also authorized simultaneous cremation of fetal remains, §16−34−3−4(a), which Indiana does not generally allow for human remains, §23−14−31−39(a).

(“PPINK”). (Filing No. 6.) PPINK filed this suit against the Commissioner of the Indiana Department of Health, and the prosecutors of Marion County, Lake County, Monroe County, and Tippecanoe County (collectively, “the State”), all in their official capacities. PPINK maintains that a provision of Indiana House Enrolled Act No. 1337 (“HEA 1337”), which went into effect on July 1, 2016, creates an undue burden on a woman’s right to choose to have an abortion and is therefore unconstitutional. It seeks to enjoin this provision during the pendency of this litigation. The parties submitted evidence, and the Court held a hearing on PPINK’s motion. The provision challenged by PPINK is found in Indiana Code § 16-34-2-1.1(a)(5). Prior to the enactment of this provision, women in Indiana were required to have an ultrasound before having an abortion, but they could have it on the same day as the abortion. Women were also required to have an informed-consent appointment at least eighteen hours prior to an abortion, during which they received state-mandated information regarding pregnancy and abortion.

  • UCLA Law Review What About the Rule of Law? Deviation from the Principles of Stare
    U.C.L.A. Law Review What About the Rule of Law? Deviation From the Principles of Stare Decisis in Abortion Jurisprudence, and an Analysis of June Medical Services L.L.C. v. Russo Oral Arguments Bridget Winkler ABSTRACT The right to abortion was established in Roe v. Wade in 1973 . Abortion s have nevertheless been systemically inaccessible to vulnerable individuals and communities for generations, and anti-abortion state legislatures and the United States federal judiciary have continued to further obstruct abortion access. This effort to undercut reproductive rights has taken on a new sense of urgency throughout the Trump Administration, as individuals with records of hostility toward reproductive rights are confirmed at record pace to lifetime positions on the federal judiciary. These appointees consistently abandon the rule of law when considering cases regarding abortion. The U.S. Supreme Court deviated from the principles of stare decisis in Box v. Planned Parenthood of Indiana and Kentucky (2019) and has further endangered those principles by granting certiorari in June Medical Services L.L.C. v. Russo (2020) to reconsider landmark precedent for abortion jurisprudence. This Article highlights how the Supreme Court consistently makes an exception to the rule of law requiring adherence to the foundational principles of stare decisis when considering abortion issues. Through an analysis of the oral arguments on March 4th, 2020, this Article argues that the Court’s decision to grant certiorari in June Medical Services v. Russo, thereby reconsidering three-year-old precedent from Whole Woman’s Health v. Hellerstedt and forty-year-old precedent from Singleton v.
