Roe v Wade: Leaked US Supreme Court opinion suggests abortion law repeal

May 4,2022 12:00 am

The US Supreme Court could be about to overturn the nationwide legal right to abortion, according to a leaked draft opinion that has stunned the country.

Politico reports that Justice Samuel Alito writes in the document that The Landmark 1973 Roe v Wade decision is " egregiously wrong".

If verified, the leaking of the document would be unprecedented in The Court 's Modern History .

The justices are expected to issue their ruling on the case by early July .

, the leaked document is marked as a "1st Draft". The votes of justices have been known to switch during the drafting process.

" Roe was egregiously wrong from the start, " The Draft opinion reportedly states.

" We hold that Roe and Casey must be overruled. "

The opinion adds: " It is time to heed The Constitution and return the issue of abortion to The People 's elected representatives. " 

If issued as a majority opinion, it looks likely to overturn the constitutional right to abortion in the US, paving The Way for individual states to ban the procedure altogether, or place more restrictions on it.

The case involves a challenge to Mississippi's ban on abortion after 15 weeks.
