Briefs Supporting Louisiana’s Admitting Privileges Law Filed with Supreme Court

On March 4, 2020, the US Supreme Court will hear oral argument in June Medical Services v. Gee, which deals with the constitutionality of Louisiana’s law requiring that doctors who perform abortions have admitting privileges at local hospitals. The state of Louisiana’s brief and the amicus briefs supporting Louisiana were filed in late December 2019 and early in January 2020. Here is a link to the Supreme Court’s docket, which contains links to all of the filings.

The Department of Justice recently filed a brief supporting the constitutionality of Louisiana’s law. The government’s brief also raised the possibility that the Court should overrule the Whole Woman’s Health case, in which the US Supreme Court invalidated a similar Texas law. Here is a link to a story on Scotusblog about the DOJ brief.
