Wyoming’s chief justice defends courts against political attacks after a law-based abortion ruling.
Wyoming’s Supreme Court Chief Justice Lynne Boomgaarden defended judicial independence in her State of the Judiciary address, stating that court rulings, including the recent abortion decision, are based on law and facts, not politics.
She warned against political attacks, defunding, or restructuring the judiciary, calling such actions threats to the rule of law.
The ruling, rooted in a 2012 constitutional amendment protecting health care decisions, has sparked backlash from Republican lawmakers, some of whom are pushing to amend the constitution or place abortion questions before voters.
The Freedom Caucus seeks greater court transparency, though many records are already public.
Boomgaarden emphasized impartiality, ethical standards, and public trust in the judiciary.
