The concept of legal standing is a key issue discussed in the podcast episodes related to the Supreme Court's rulings on the abortion drug mifepristone.

The episodes explain how the Court's interpretation of legal standing has played a pivotal role in determining whether the plaintiffs, typically anti-abortion groups, have the proper grounds to challenge the FDA's approval and regulation of mifepristone. The Abortion Pill Ruling (with Trevor Morrison), SCOTUS Protects Abortion Pill (For Now), and Abortion Status Quo Remains For Now After Supreme Court Punt all delve into the complexities of legal standing in these cases.

Additionally, the episode Controlling Birth Control (with Mary Ziegler) explores how the doctrine of legal standing has evolved, particularly in the context of reproductive rights cases and challenges from conservative plaintiffs.
