An apparent draft Supreme Court opinion obtained by Politico shows

procedure. During arguments in December, five of the justices hinted that they were ready to do away

with the viability standard established by Roe and a subsequent 1992 decision planned parenthood

versus Casey. The drafting of Supreme Court opinions, however, is a fluid and dynamic

process. The document posted suggests a majority of justices is likely to side with Mississippi,

but how broad a ruling will ultimately come down, will ultimately come down remains unclear.
