No, the fourth COMES UP in legal cases - but it is much bigger than that.
Let's take an illegal search, for example. They toss out the evidence, right? 4th mentdment violation. But it doesn't end there. The cops can lose their qualified immunity over that ****, and have their houses taken away. Becuse they violated RIGHTS.
There are no criminal rights in our Consttution. Just rights - period.
No dude. 4th and 5th only apply to rights for people who are under suspicion of breaking the law.
As long as pregnancy isn't illegal then none of this stuff applies.
I'd saymiscegenation were still illegal (as is was 200 years ago) one could argue that a woman pregnant with a mixed race fetus has a rights to abort it, based on the 4th.
You could argue it. Not saying it is sure but at least a case could be made.
But as long as pregnancy isn't illegal none of this stuff applies.
