	Griswold V. Connecticut: Birth Control and the Constitutional Right of Privacy.
		CONNECTICUT, the 1965 case in which the Court majority, led by Justice William O. Douglas, invalidated a Connecticut birth-control law on the basis of a “right to privacy.” The decision served as the foundation for the Supreme Court’s decision in ROE v.
		Douglas’ majority opinion in GRISWOLD rests on the idea that the provisions of the First, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Ninth, and Fourteenth Amendments had “emanations” that cast “penumbras” implicating a right to privacy.
		Johnson believes that GRISWOLD continues to have implications for the issue of gay civil unions and marriages, but he is not altogether clear as to whether adherence to GRISWOLD requires that such legal arrangements be accepted and suggests that this issue might ultimately be resolved through equal protection, rather than through privacy, analysis.
