West Virginia - Last week, in West Virginia's highest court, The Bopp Law Firm filed an amicus (or “friend of the court”) brief on behalf of Stand for Health Freedom (“SHF”), a national nonprofit organization dedicated to protecting informed consent in health decision-making and the constitutional structure that safeguards those freedoms. The amicus brief was filed in support of the plaintiffs in Guzman v. West Virginia Board of Education, who had asked the trial court to require the West Virginia Board of Education (“Board”) to honor their religious exemptions from the state's Compulsory Vaccination Law.
On Tuesday, Oregon Right to Life (“ORTL”), a pro-life organization, secured a victory in Oregon’s federal district court. ORTL had challenged an Oregon law (the “Abortion Mandate”) requiring employers, including ORTL, to pay for abortion coverage in employee health insurance plans. Even though Oregon provided both secular exceptions and exceptions for other religious organizations that met the state’s narrow definition of a “religious employer,” it had refused to exempt ORTL, despite ORTL’s religious objection to the Abortion Mandate.

On Tuesday, July 22, 2025, Nevada’s federal court gave effect to its decision to vacate its 1991 order banning enforcement of a Nevada law requiring that parents be notified when their minor children seek an abortion (“parental-notice law”). As a result of litigation commenced shortly after the law was passed and before it went into effect, the district court had barred enforcement of the law based on Roe v. Wade. However, the Supreme Court overruled Roe in its 2022 Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision. Accordingly, Stephen B. Rye, Lyon County District Attorney, and Garrit S. Pruyt, Carson City District Attorney, supported by Nevada Right to Life, argued that the district court should lift its ban against the law since Roe was its sole basis.
The Bopp Law Firm Announces that James Bopp, Jr. Has Been Recognized as one of the 250 Most Influential Leaders in Indiana
On Tuesday, in the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit , attorney James Bopp, Jr., of The Bopp Law Firm, PC, argued that the appellate court should overrule the trial court’s determination that Oregon could lawfully require Oregon Right to Life (“ORTL”), a pro-life organization, to pay for abortion. The Oregon law in question (the “Mandate”) requires virtually all health insurance plans to cover abortion. Even though ORTL objects to abortion on religious grounds, Oregon declined to provide an exception that would cover ORTL—all while the state did include both secular exceptions and exceptions for other religious organizations in the Mandate. Accordingly, in plain violation of ORTL’s religious liberty, the Mandate requires ORTL to purchase employee insurance plans that cover abortion, the very thing ORTL is devoted to fighting against.

The Bopp Law Firm, PC, is pleased to announce that its Principal Attorney, James Bopp, Jr., has been invited to give the Keynote Address at the Sycamore Trust Annual Breakfast at Notre Dame Alumni Reunion 2025 on Saturday, May 31, 2025. The Sycamore Trust is an independent organization of alumni and friends of Notre Dame University who are fighting to preserve the university's Catholic identity. Through reporting on signs of secularization of the university, facilitating collective action to defend the school's religious mission, and promoting opportunities to support initiatives that embody Catholic teaching on campus, the Sycamore Trust seeks to hold Notre Dame accountable to its own requirement of maintaining a continuing presence of a predominant number of Catholic intellectuals on the faculty, which ultimately determines its Catholic identity.
