  • SUPREME COURT of the UNITED STATES Syllabus PLANNED
    SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES Syllabus PLANNED PARENTHOOD OF SOUTHEASTERN PENNSYLVANIA et al. v. CASEY, GOVERNOR OF PENNSYLVANIA, et al. CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE THIRD CIRCUIT No. 91-744. Argued April 22, 1992 -- Decided June 29, 1992 At issue are five provisions of the Pennsylvania Abortion Control Act of 1982: § 3205, which requires that a woman seeking an abortion give her informed consent prior to the procedure, and specifies that she be provided with certain information at least 24 hours before the abortion is performed; § 3206, which mandates the informed consent of one parent for a minor to obtain an abortion, but provides a judicial bypass procedure; § 3209, which commands that, unless certain exceptions apply, a married woman seeking an abortion must sign a statement indicating that she has notified her husband; § 3203, which defines a "medical emergency" that will excuse compliance with the foregoing requirements; and §§ 3207(b), 3214(a), and 3214(f), which impose certain reporting requirements on facilities providing abortion services. Before any of the provisions took effect, the petitioners, five abortion clinics and a physician representing himself and a class of doctors who provide abortion services, brought this suit seeking a declaratory judgment that each of the provisions was unconstitutional on its face, as well as injunctive relief. The District Court held all the provisions unconstitutional and permanently enjoined their enforcement. The Court of Appeals affirmed in part and reversed in part, striking down the husband notification provision but upholding the others. Held: The judgment in No. 91-902 is affirmed; the judgment in No.

  • Public Overwhelmingly Supports Planned Parenthood
    Public Overwhelmingly Supports Planned Parenthood In the months since the latest attacks on Planned Parenthood launched, national polls have found broad deep support for the organization and its ability to provide health care services to millions of people – and the public has mobilized on behalf of Planned Parenthood. The public is largely aware of accusations about Planned Parenthood – and is not persuaded by them. Thirteen separate nationwide polls show strong favorability for Planned Parenthood and strong opposition to efforts in Congress to defund the organization, which would prevent low-income women from receiving health care at Planned Parenthood. These polls stem from the deep and longstanding relationship that many Americans have with Planned Parenthood, which is the nation’s leading provider of reproductive health care and sex education. For 99 years, women, men, and young people have relied on Planned Parenthood for birth control, lifesaving cancer screenings, safe abortion, and other high-quality health care. One in five women American women reports having been to Planned Parenthood for care in her lifetime. All thirteen national polls conducted in the wake of these attacks show strong support for Planned Parenthood and extraordinarily strong opposition to shutting down the government over Planned Parenthood federal funding. • A new poll from Associated Press-GfK found that 69% of those surveyed do not support forcing a government shutdown to block Planned Parenthood’s funding, and less than half of Republicans would entertain this idea. • A New York Times/CBS News Poll taken in the middle of the 2015 defund fight found that most Americans think Planned Parenthood should continue to receive government funding.

With two young children (5 years old and 18 months old), and one more on the way in two months, the Cislo’s were quite the basket case. They will never forget MPC’s care and nurturing through those most difficult times.

Dan and Lisa live in the Winding Way East area of Malibu and Dan continues to manage the intellectual property law firm of Cislo & Thomas LLP in WLA and Westlake Village.

  • Fr. Perozich Comments — If I Were to Wish To
    Fr. Perozich comments — If I were to wish to exert my own will over the Catholic Church rather than to continue to promote Jesus Christ’s sacrifice for our salvation from sin, death, and isolation for goodness, eternal life, and communion with God and one another, I would be astute in my approach. I would allow interviews with non believers to report what I said so that I would have deniability. I would put into power others of like mind to be heralds of my beliefs. I would caution on synods of particular churches, but not prohibit them in order to allow their teachings in accord with my own to come to the larger forum. I would use new language and meaning of “ starting from the pastoral situation” in which people live their lives be it good or bad, “discerning spirits”, “truth through discourse”, and the idea that what is decided locally could influence Rome. I would have my forgone conclusions ready to be presented for discussion and for the final document. The Catholic Church from the apostles did start with the “pastoral situation”, of people who were like sheep without a shepherd. The people were given clear teaching on living the commandments, not to break one of the least of them Mt. 5:19, to be baptized Jn 3:5, to eat the flesh and drink the blood of Jesus Jn 6:51-58, and to do the Father’s will Jn 14:23. Through the apostle John they were told not to trust any spirit 1 Jn 4, and through Paul to the Galatians 1 not to accept any other gospel.
