Supreme Court

The Supreme Court took the bench again on Monday, ready to hear cases on ghost guns, a death sentence and transgender rights. The justices also heard their first case dealing with pandemic-era unemployment claims filed in Alabama.

Leavell-Keaton was convicted of murder in the death of 3-year-old Chase DeBlase and manslaughter in the death of his sister, 4-year-old Natalie DeBlase. Prosecutors said she poisoned the children with antifreeze.

Students in Alabama and across the nation are waiting on a decision by the U.S. Supreme Court that could hit their wallets. Student loan payments are expected to resume after being paused for the pandemic.

Monday marks the start of the first full week since the U.S. Supreme Court struck down the Roe Versus Wade decision legalizing abortion. A Montgomery federal judge also just removed an injunction to a 2019 Alabama law that makes abortions a felony. The West Alabama Women’s Center in Tuscaloosa provided fifty percent of the procedures in the state. The clinic says one hundred patients have already been turned away.

A Montgomery federal judge lifted an injunction against Alabama’s 2019 Human Life Protection Act, officially making abortions a felony in the state. Judge Myron Thompson order states that the legal argument against Alabama’s ban no longer exists following action by the U.S. Supreme Court to strike down the Roe Versus Wade decision that gave constitutional protections to women seeking end their pregnancies.

A lot of the focus in Alabama, following the U.S. Supreme Court decision to strike down Roe V, Wade, has centered on the state’s 2019 Human Life Protection act. The measure would make it a felony to conduct an abortion in Alabama. The law is under a current court injunction, but the state’s Attorney General could reportedly take action to reinstate it. That apparently isn’t what’s really concerning abortion providers and their patients in Alabama.
