North Dakota Attorney General reviewing Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision to determine impact on state law
North Dakota Legal professional Normal Drew Wrigley launched the next assertion concerning the U.S. Supreme Courtroom opinion issued immediately (June 24, 2022):
“America Supreme Courtroom has decided that the federal structure leaves with States the authority to craft and enact legal guidelines defining abortion practices.
The ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Ladies’s Well being Group shifts abortion regulation away from the courts and onto the shoulders of the folks’s elected representatives within the 50 state legislatures.
This workplace is evaluating the Dobbs opinion in each element and can give cautious consideration to its affect on North Dakota’s abortion legal guidelines. By statute, this workplace has thirty days inside which to certify whether or not the Dobbs choice provides impact to present North Dakota abortion legal guidelines that conflicted with earlier United States Supreme Courtroom choices.”
