Twins are like one another for the following reasons. First, they were secreted together; then the places are alike in which they grow, then they grow by the same nourishment, and at birth they reach together the light of day.

The Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) entitles eligible employees of covered employers to take unpaid, job-protected leave for specified family and medical reasons with continuation of group health insurance coverage under the same terms and conditions as if the employee had not taken leave. Eligible employees are entitled to: twelve workweeks of leave in a 12-month period for the birth of a child and to care for the newborn child within one year of birth; the placement with the employee of a child for adoption or foster care and to care for the newly placed child within one year of placement; to care for the employee’s spouse, child, or parent who has a serious health condition; a serious health condition that makes the employee unable to perform the essential functions of his or her job; any qualifying exigency arising out of the fact that the employee’s spouse, son, daughter, or parent is a covered military member on “covered active duty;” or twenty-six workweeks of leave during a single 12-month period to care for a covered servicemember with a serious injury or illness if the eligible employee is the servicemember’s spouse, son, daughter, parent, or next of kin (military caregiver leave).

Cases

  • Roberts v Galen of Virginia, Inc.

Finding no support for such a requirement in the text of the statute, the Supreme Court reversed)
  • Goehring v. Brophy (9th Cir. 1996) (mandatory student registration fees that subsidize abortion services do not violate the right to free exercise of religion)
  • Elizabeth Blackwell Health Center For Women v. Knoll (3d Cir. 1995) (finding Pennsylvania Abortion Control Act invalid due to lack of waiver provision and physician certification provision)
  • Madsen v. Women’s Health Ctr. (U.S. 1994) (establishment of a 36-foot buffer zone on a public street from which demonstrators are excluded passes muster under the First Amendment, but several other provisions of the injunction do not)
  • N.O.W. v. Scheidler (U.S. 1994) (health clinics had standing to bring RICO action against abortion protestor group)
  • Planned Parenthood v. Casey (U.S. 1992) (state abortion regulation has the purpose or effect of imposing an “undue burden,” which is defined as a “substantial obstacle in the path of a woman seeking an abortion before the fetus attains viability”)
  • Webster v. Reproductive Health
    Services
    (U.S. 1989) (Due Process Clause did not require states to enter into the business of abortion; State’s interest in protecting potential life could come into existence before the point of viability)
