He could shown some leadership skills and sway his other jurists to hear the case since Missouri law allows abortions ONLY for sick women. The ACLU argued on the grounds of CHOICE, the woman was fine. They could have sided using the 10th amendment as an argument and let the state do what the people of Missouri wanted.
The scotus could also have decided the case base on the 5th and 14th amendments granting us citizens a right to life and equal protection under the law.
