From WSJopinion: Overturning Roe v. Wade wouldn’t settle the abortion issue, but it would create the possibility of a settlement, writes Peggynoonannyc
Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization.
On Friday, under the court’s usual procedure, the justices would meet to hold a preliminary vote on their decision. A member of the majority will be assigned to write it. The court will review and amend that document and is expected to hand down its decision at the end of its term, in late June or early July.
This will be an intense and dramatic time for the court, which will likely decide one of two things. It may overturn 1973’sdecision. That wouldn’t make abortion illegal in the U.S. but would revert the question to each state legislature. Some, through legislation designed to be triggered at the overturning ofwill guarantee full abortion on demand, as New York and California already have. Some will apply limits—15 weeks in the case of the Mississippi law the justices are considering.

Justices' abortion remarks: Is it time to overturn Roe?The Supreme Court heard arguments in which it was asked to overturn a nationwide right to abortion that has existed for nearly 50 years. The fate of the court’s 1973 Roe v. Wade decision legalizing abortion throughout the United States and its 1992 ruling in Planned Parenthood v. Casey, which reaffirmed Roe, probably won’t be known until late June. The justices were being asked to overrule the two seminal decisions in the context of a Mississippi law that bans abortion after 15 weeks.
