Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization (“Dobbs”)

Supreme Court of United States on 24tth of June, 2022 decided Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization (“Dobbs”) and ruled in favour of the state of Mississippi which was seeking invalidation of the 50-year-old precedent of Roe v. Wade (“Roe”), protecting the constitutional right of abortion. After a federal district court ruling granting permanent injunction against the ban on abortion in the state of Mississippi was upheld by the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, SCOTUS turned the clock back on the right to abortion stating that the Constitution of United States does not confer the same.
