William Saunders: ABC v. Ireland

William Saunders, Senior Vice President of Legal Affairs at Americans United for Life, writing at The Catholic Thing: “While the Court should dismiss the case, there are signs this will not happen. For example, before the lower chamber reached a decision, the matter was referred to the Grand Chamber. This is a highly unusual development in the process of a case and a signal that the Court may be preparing to issue what it considers an ‘historic’ decision. After all, why gather all nineteen judges just to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction?”
