Arguing Parental Notification in Abortion

It's been 5 years since the Supreme Court last heard a case involving abortion, so there is keen interest in Ayotte v. Planned Parenthood (04-1144), particularly since this is the first chance to see how Chief Justice John Roberts will approach this incendiary issue.

SCOTUSblog's Lyle Denniston reports on today's argument is his post "Abortion: narrowing the focus," and over at How Appealing, Howard Bashman is linking to all manner of news reports and commentary.
