Question

Some people consider Griswold v. Connecticut to be an example of judicial activism because it
established a right to privacy, which the Constitution does not explicitly name.
outlawed prayer in school, which was a practice supported by many Americans.
created a new requirement for police to follow when making arrests.
awarded public school students the same rights as adults.

Answer 1

"Established a right to privacy, which the Constitution does not explicitly name."

Griswold v. Connecticut (1965) struck down a law banning contraceptives for married couples, finding a constitutional "right to privacy" in the "penumbras" of several amendments — which some critics call judicial activism because the right is not explicitly listed in the text.
