Roberts, Stare Decisis, and Roe

Feddie has some comments defending Roberts on Confirmthem.org here. Professor Paul Sracic of Youngstown State also e-mails: “Using Roberts’s standard, it is fairly easy to argue that Roe has been ‘eroded.’ There is, for example, no way to reconcile most of Akron v. Akron Center for Reproductive Health (1983) with Casey. Is this just another way of saying that Roe has been dismantled ‘doorjamb by doorjamb?’ “

Jonathan H. Adler is the Johan Verheij Memorial Professor of Law and the director of the Coleman P. Burke Center for Environmental Law at the Case Western Reserve University School of Law.
