C E N T E R F O R R E C L A I M I N G A M E R I C A From the Desk of Dr. Gary Cass, Executive Director + + PRO-LIFE ALERT,

1/17/2005 Supreme Court receives case to overturn Roe v. Wade (Forward to your pro-life friends)

On January 18, the U.S. Supreme Court will begin a process that could overturn Roe v. Wade! Because you have stood with the Center for Reclaiming America on pro-life issues, I wanted to alert you to this news. On January 18, Norma McCorvey (the original "Jane Roe" of Roe v. Wade) will file a legal appeal with the Supreme Court to have Roe v. Wade reversed. I will be in Washington, D.C., on that day to stand with our friends at The Justice Foundation in support of this case. The Justice Foundation has invested thousands upon thousands of hours in this case. They have gathered an enormous body of evidence to support Norma's case. Chris, this is a powerful opportunity to refute Roe v. Wade! Here is how you can help. First, notify your friends. Forward this message to everyone you know. We simply must get the word out. Second, please pray for Norma and the team at The Justice Foundation. Set aside time on January 18, specifically, to pray. Third, find out more about this case and how you can impact The Justice Foundation’s efforts here: http://www.operationoutcry.org Thank you! Dr. Gary Cass Executive Director Center for Reclaiming America + + For CENTER coverage of this issue: http://www.reclaimamerica.org/pages/operation/operationout.asp + + The Center for Reclaiming America, established by Dr. D. James Kennedy, is an outreach of Coral Ridge Ministries to inform the American public and motivate Christians to defend and implement the biblical principles on which our country was founded. The Center, led by Executive Director Dr. Gary Cass, provides non-partisan, non-denominational information, training, and support to all those interested in impacting the culture and renewing the vision set forth by our Founding Fathers.

The court will not reverse based on a 32-year-late admission. About the best Ms. McCorvey can hope for is that she doesn't get racked up for perjury.

Statute of limitations is long expired. On top of that, if she was coerved to commit perjury, it would be a major mitigating factor, especially since she came forward.

So you SUPPORT the process of Ammending the Constitution to Correct this Judicial Error, rather than have the court revisit the issue?

That's one option I support. Another option would be to get pro-life laws passed in one or more states and let the Court revisit the issue in a new case.

Roe v. Wade closed 32 years ago. Legally speaking, it's about as dead as disco.

Correct me if I am wrong..

You are suggesting that there is no way to ask the court to revisit the originally question, and that you think we should correct this matter by Constitutional Ammendment?

Statute of limitations is long expired.

Which makes the claim of having committed perjury moot.

If you can't get racked up for perjury because of the statute of limitations, odds are that the case is not open for review due to the passage of time.

Didn't Norma already file an appeal that the court refused to take up? Something like a year maybe 18 months ago? Hmmn, I don't think I am gonna bet on the Court taking up the issue again, at least not with the current sitting Justices anyway.

Not possible becuase of the "CATCH-22" any "new law" will be deemed UNCONSTITUTIONAL based on Roe v. Wade.. Correct Roe v. Wade, and new law is not needed

What we NEED is a constitutional crisis in which the Executive Branch issues a ban on abortions and orders the enforcement mechanisms to ignore the court and enforce it. We have to get used to the idear of "just saying NO" to the courts if we ever want to get out of the mess we're in. And don't talk to me about lawlessness, we're more lawless than ever and that's with the lawyers in charge.

I'm all for the reversal of Roe v. Wade, but this is the wrong case at the wrong time.

No, I did not say that. You asked the same question earlier, and I answered it in Post #42. Bottom line: Roe v. Wade is, legally speaking, as dead as disco is. The option for judicial review is to get a new law restricting abortion enacted in one or more states, and then litigate the issue in a new case.

Bad analogy. Disco dancing, i.e. the hustle, is currently making a comeback.

Ever hear of two cases, Plessy v. Ferguson and Brown v. Board of Education?

The Court did a 180-degree turn on the controversy at the center of those two cases.

It can happen again.

Roe v. Wade is not going to be "corrected" 32 years after it closes, based solely on a Rule 60(b) filing by the plaintiff (who did, after all, get what she asked for at the time). Period. That's not how the legal system actually works.

Poohbah is correct. The Court doesn't give advisory opinions or answer political questions. They don't overturn decisions based on their whims, no matter how logical it may seem.

They had to wait years for a case like Brown v. Board of Ed so they could overturn Plessy v. Ferguson. They couldn't just overturn it, it doesn't work that way.

About what it is for post-closure review of civil litigation.
