Tomorrow morning the U.S. Supreme Court is hearing oral arguments as to whether all pre-viability prohibitions on abortion are unconstitutional—putting Roe v. Wade at risk.
The Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health hearing stems from Mississippi lawmakers and Governor Tate Reeves pushing for highly restrictive abortion bans. The audio of the hearing will be streamed live on the Court’s site: supremecourt.gov/oral_arguments…
Mississippi, a state with only one abortion clinic, passed a 15-week abortion ban in March 2018; however, the very next day, it was temporarily blocked after the Center for Reproductive Rights filed a lawsuit.

A note sent from the jury to Judge Moon in the ‘Sines v. Kessler’ case just now - the jury asks “under punitive damages…can we separate out the amount that is awarded to individual plaintiffs?”
Moon proposes telling the jury no, “but only plaintiffs awarded compensatory damages will share in the punitive damages awarded”
Judge Moon says he received a letter from Chris Cantwell asking to be brought to the court whenever the jury asks any more questions… Moon says that the defense side can just have one person present while jury notes are being read.

Court is starting for the 21st say in the civil trial of the ‘Sines v. Kessler’ lawsuit filed against organizers of the Charlottesville neo-nazi rally. Judge Moon says the jury arrived at 8:30 AM and already began deliberating
Apparently on Friday jurors asked for a transcript of defendant Matt Parrott (co-leader of the neo-nazi Traditionalist Worker Party) - Moon says he will allow the jury to request particular portions of the transcript.
Court has adjourned until the hear from the jury - either with a note/question or if they’ve reached a verdict.
