Roberts repeatedly suggested the viability line was arbitrary and irrelevant to the fundamental holdings of roe and casey a point contradicted by lawyers challenging the mississippi law. At the same time, roberts revealed an openness to retaining some right for women to terminate a pregnancy at an early stage. The court first established a right to abortion in 73, it rooted it in the fourteenth amendment's due process claus which protects a right to privacy.
