Since Justice Brett Kavanaugh survived the vicious attempt to derail his Supreme Court nomination with a wholly unproven sexual assault allegation, proponents and critics alike have wondered: When will he speak up about Roe v. Wade and what will he say? Well, we finally got some insight into the answer this past week.

In a concurring opinion just released in a case called Ramos v. Louisiana, Kavanaugh takes aim at the precedent set in a 1972 case, which allowed for convictions with nonunanimous juries in criminal trials. The justice argues that it is time to overrule the legal precedent and sets about schooling everyone on the matter of stare decisis, Latin for “to stand by the things decided” or legal precedent.
