The majority conservative court will hear a challenge to Mississippi's ban on abortions after 15 weeks.

If the ban is upheld, it could pave the way for further abortion restrictions that have been pushed for by conservatives.

In 1973, the Supreme Court ruling protected pregnant women's liberty to chose to have an abortion without excessive government restriction, striking down many federal and state abortion laws.The case was brought by Norma McCorvey, who used the pseudonym Jane Roe in the lawsuit.
