Organizations of Women Lawyers Amicus Brief in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health
Brief filed at the U.S. Supreme Court in support of the Center's challenge to Mississippi's pre-viability abortion ban.
Amici are Women Lawyers on Guard, Women’s Bar Association of the District of Columbia, National Association of Women Lawyers, and other organizations of women lawyers.
People have relied on their right to individual liberty and bodily autonomy in order to plan their families and futures for over 50 years.
Amici have personally relied on these rights to advance their own careers and gender parity in the legal profession overall.
Amici argue that the doctrine of stare decisis compels the Court to strike down Mississippi’s unconstitutional ban.
Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP is pro bono counsel.
This brief was one of over 50 amicus briefs filed supporting this Supreme Court case, which challenges Mississippi’s 15-week abortion ban. For more information on the case, go to Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization.
