Ayotte v. Planned Parenthood of Northern New England
''Ayotte v. Planned Parenthood of Northern New England'', 546 U.S. 320 (2006), was a decision by the Supreme Court of the United States involving a facial challenge to New Hampshire's parental notification abortion law. The First Circuit had ruled that the law was unconstitutional and an injunction against its enforcement was proper. The Supreme Court vacated this judgment and remanded the case, but avoided a substantive ruling on the challenged law or a reconsideration of prior Supreme Court abortion precedent. Instead, the Court only addressed the issue of remedy, holding that invalidating a statute in its entirety "is not always necessary or justified, for lower courts may be able to render narrower declaratory and injunctive relief."
The opinion was delivered by Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, who had been significantly responsible for developing the Court's recent abortion jurisprudence.〔O'Connor was one of the three attributed authors of the plurality opinion in ''Planned Parenthood v. Casey'', 505 U.S. 833 (1992), that adopted the "undue burden" standard for reviewing whether abortion regulations were too stringent, a standard she herself had previously formulated in her concurring opinion in ''Webster v. Reproductive Health Services'', 492 U.S. 490 (1989).〕 This decision was O'Connor's last opinion on the Court before her retirement on January 31, 2006.
