A legal case in which the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in 1973 that it is unconstitutional for states to unduly restrict abortion

Answer 1

The legal case is Roe v. Wade, 410 U.S. 113 (1973). In this landmark decision, the Supreme Court ruled that a state law banning abortion except to save the life of the mother was unconstitutional. The Court held that a woman's right to choose to have an abortion is protected by the constitutional right to privacy derived from the due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. This decision has had a significant impact on reproductive rights in the United States.
