Thread Name: BS: Roe v. Wade
Subject: RE: BS: Roe v. Wade
Times are fluid in conservative states where they are going so far as promoting laws to protect rapists and even each member of the rapist's family. https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2022/03/idaho-abortion-bill-rapist-families
Sueing in court can have variable amounts and outcomes be it in any state. There is no fixed amount except in cases when a cap is put on awards. So no particular amount is set in stone. But whenever 10K is awarded to an 'abortion bounty hunter' or a rapist consider yourself correct.
Who pays the $10,000? If they win, plaintiffs can recover at least $10,000 for each abortion prohibited under the law. The money damages could well run higher if a lawsuit has many defendants in the case.

“The defendant — whether a provider, funder, clergyperson, friend or family member — pays the damages which are set at a minimum of $10,000. If there are several defendants, they each pay $10,000 in damages,” Elizabeth Sepper, a professor specializing in health law and religious liberty at the University of Texas at Austin’s School of Law.
By the way Ebbie thank you for the prior quality post.
