The 2024 Supplement brings the principal family law text fully up to date, capturing the most significant legal developments since its publication. It provides edited versions of landmark Supreme Court decisions that have reshaped family law, including Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization (overturning Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey), Bostock v. Clayton County (expanding Title VII protections to cover anti-gay and anti-trans discrimination), and Fulton v. City of Philadelphia (addressing LGBTQ civil rights and the intersection with First Amendment religious freedom claims).

In addition, the Supplement offers in-depth analysis, extended commentary, and thought-provoking questions on other groundbreaking cases affecting family law, such as:

• 303 Creative LLC v. Elenis – First Amendment free-speech protections versus public accommodations laws and sexual orientation equality provisions.

• 2023 Affirmative Action Cases – Race-conscious college admissions policies and Equal Protection implications.

• Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine v. FDA – The FDA’s authority over mifepristone.

• Department of State v. Muñoz – Constitutional marriage rights for U.S. citizens in the immigration context.

• L.W. ex rel. Williams v. Skrmetti – Gender-affirming medical care bans for transgender youth and constitutional questions in the post-Dobbs era.

• United States v. Rahimi – Second Amendment considerations in domestic violence protections.

• LePage v. Center for Reproductive Medicine, P.C. – Recognition of frozen embryos under Alabama’s Wrongful Death of a Minor Act.

The Supplement also includes updates on Haaland v. Brackeen, affirming the Indian Child Welfare Act, and new Supreme Court developments regarding the Hague Convention on child abduction, including Monasky v. Taglieri and Golan v. Saada. Additional updates cover parenting, custody of gender-diverse children, assisted reproduction, and other evolving areas of family law.

Designed for law students, educators, and practitioners alike, this Supplement provides essential context, critical analysis, and curated questions to guide understanding of the complex, rapidly evolving landscape of family law.
