By Howard Friedman on November 20, 2021

Oral arguments in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, the much-watched Mississippi abortion case, will be heard by the Supreme Court on December 1. A near-record number of amicus (friend-of-the-court) briefs have been filed in the case– 141 in total on the merits. Links to nearly all of the briefs are available on the SCOTUS blog case page for the case. A 2020 National Law Journal article says that the record for number of amicus briefs in one Supreme Court case is 156.
