Line 11: Line 11:  
Justice [[Anthony Kennedy]] wrote a [http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/99-830.ZD2.html dissent] arguing that the law was consistent with ''Casey'' because it allowed some laws protecting the fetuses. Justices [[Clarence Thomas]] and [[Antonin Scalia]] wrote separate additional dissents ([http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/99-830.ZD3.html], [http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/99-830.ZD1.html]) rejecting that there was any right to an [[abortion]] at all and thus not recognizing any logic which used ''Casey'' or ''[[Roe v. Wade]]''. Indeed, Justice Scalia went so far in his dissent to attack Justice Kennedy's claims that the majority was not following ''Casey'' and argued furthermore that the decision by the majority demonstrated a reducio ad absurdam of ''Casey''.

Justice Renquist also [http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/99-830.ZD.html dissented], merely repeating that he thought ''Casey'' was wrongly decided.
