An AZ Supreme Court Justice Openly Opposes
Abortion. He’ll Decide Its Legality Anyway. |
|
"A justice on the Arizona
Supreme Court — which this winter could decide
whether the state can enforce a total ban on
abortion — has repeatedly expressed his opposition
to the procedure and received campaign support from
a prominent state anti-abortion activist, according
to materials reviewed by The 19th. Experts told The
19th that his past comments could be grounds for him
recusing himself from the abortion-ban case, which
he has not done. The justice, Bill Montgomery,
joined the Arizona Supreme Court in 2019 after
serving nine years as the Maricopa County attorney.
In a now-deleted 2017 Facebook post, he said Planned
Parenthood “is responsible for the greatest genocide
known to man,” which was reported by the Phoenix New
Times in 2019. Planned Parenthood is the
organization challenging Arizona’s law." |

Montgomery
Appointment
Dangerous Setback
For LGBTQ Arizonans
|
|
"“Bill Montgomery
has made a career of
marginalizing the
most vulnerable
Arizonans, including
the LGBTQ
community,” said HRC
Deputy Campaign
Director Justin Unga.
“He has shown that
he’s unable to set
aside personal
biases and treat
LGBTQ Arizonans with
the dignity and
respect that we
deserve in our legal
system. |

Governor Ducey
Rigged The System To
Appoint Bill
Montgomery To The
Arizona Supreme
Court |
|
"Earlier this year,
when Maricopa County
Attorney Bill
Montgomery applied
for an open seat on
the Arizona Supreme
Court,
the
Commission on
Appellate Court
Appointments voted
him down 7–5 after
criticizing his lack
of experience, his
controversial views
and past that raised
concerns about his
impartiality, and
his office’s culture
of misconduct. [...]
Governor
Doug Ducey
promptly replaced
Montgomery’s
opponents on the
Commission on
Appellate Court
Appointments with
Republicans or
Republican-affiliated
“independents” to
rig the system with
commissioners who
would do his
bidding." |
