Dobbs Sentences #146: Part II C 1

As always, you can find the Dobbs v. Jackson decision here.

Paragraph 5 of 6

Sentence 3 of 3

This sentence is a single claim that continues the train of thought of the previous sentence:

“Respondents and the Solicitor General also rely on post-Casey decisions like Lawrence v. Texas, 539 U.S. 558 (2003) (right to engage in private, consensual sexual acts), and Obergefell v. Hodges, 576 U.S. 644 (2015) (right to marry a person of the same sex). See Brief for Respondents 18; Brief for United States 23–24.

Again, without the citations:

“Respondents and the Solicitor General also rely on post-Casey decisions [acknowledging a] right to engage in private, consensual sexual acts and [a] right to marry a person of the same sex.”

Great. When I feel like tracking this down I’ll do that. For now, this is undetermined:

  • “Respondents and the Solicitor General also rely on post-Casey decisions [acknowledging a] right to engage in private, consensual sexual acts and [a] right to marry a person of the same sex.”

Here’s what to track down:

  • Lawrence v. Texas, 539 U.S. 558 (2003) (right to engage in private, consensual sexual acts)
  • Obergefell v. Hodges, 576 U.S. 644 (2015) (right to marry a person of the same sex)
  • Brief for Respondents 18
  • Brief for United States 23–24
