In June 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a landmark decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health, 597 U.S. ___ (2022), overruling Roe v. Wade, and declaring that decisions about abortion regulation shall be largely left to the states.
This program provides an overview of the major doctrinal changes effectuated by Dobbs and brings attendees up to date on major post-Dobbs developments in state and federal law affecting abortion access — with particular attention to recent abortion-related legislation and litigation in North Carolina.
Specific topics include:
- The Dobbs Decision and Its Ramifications
- Dobbs in the States: Surveying the New Landscape of Access to Abortion
- Medication Abortion After Dobbs
