FOULSTON: THE CREATION OF A MINOR'S RIGHT TO PRIVACY AND A NEW PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION STANDARD INTRODUCTION Forty-six percent of teens aged fifteen to nineteen have had sex at least once.' This startling statistic raises the question of how the state, which has an interest in protecting its youth, should deal with underage sex. Some people argue for promoting abstinence, others argue for pro- viding contraceptives; some argue for education in schools, others for parental education. There are a variety of ways to deal with the problem, and some are more controversial than others. Kansas Attorney General Phill Kline found one of the most controversial ways to protect teenagers from the harms of sex, implemented it in an attorney general opinion, and faced the inevitable public critique and lawsuits over his choice of protection.

  • Constitutional Rights in Kansas After Hodes & Nauser
    Constitutional Rights in Kansas After Hodes & Nauser Richard E. Levy* I. INTRODUCTION In Hodes & Nauser, MDs, P.A. v. Schmidt,1 the Kansas Supreme Court held that section 1 of the Kansas Constitution’s Bill of Rights protects a woman’s fundamental right “to make her own decisions regarding her body, health, family formation, and family life—decisions that can include whether to continue a pregnancy.”2 For the most part, reactions to this long-awaited and controversial decision fell along predictable lines, with pro-choice advocates hailing the decision as an important advancement for women’s reproductive freedoms, and right to life advocates condemning the decision and vowing to reverse it by state constitutional amendment.3 In this Article, I will leave those important but intractable debates to one side and focus on a more practical question: What are the implications of Hodes & Nauser for the interpretation and application of constitutional rights in Kansas? The central premise of this Article is that Hodes & Nauser decouples Kansas individual rights doctrine from the United States Supreme Court’s constitutional rights jurisprudence, with significant implications not only for abortion rights but also for many other constitutional rights.4 When * J.B.

BIG ABORTION: WHAT THE ANTIABORTION MOVEMENT CAN LEARN FROM BIG TOBACCO Justin D. Heminger Judge Casey's opinion in National Abortion Federation v. Ashcroft' epitomizes abortion law at the beginning of the twenty-first century.2 In National Abortion Federation, Judge Casey considered the constitutionality of the federal Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act of 2003' (2003 Ban) in light of Stenberg v. Carhart.4 Judge Casey began by noting that partial-birth abortion5 "has been described by many, including Justices of the Supreme Court, as gruesome, inhumane, brutal, and barbaric." 6 Yet, fifty-five pages later, Judge Casey struck down the 2003 Ban.
