TCG: Holding Pattern – ‘Griswold’ (pt. II)
Griswold v. Connecticut (pt. II)
Part of the “Holding Pattern” series ... deep dives on watershed cases
The 1965 Supreme Court that held a Connecticut contraception law unconstitutional paved the way for a greater recognition of privacy rights. Some have criticized the Court’s reasoning, then and now, but the Griswold case is a cornerstone on which additional rights have been built. In this second part of this “Holding Pattern” episode, Leigh focuses on the text of the judicial opinions from the case … and what makes some critics uncomfortable.
