It was a 2007 decision, on appeal from an Eigth Circuit ruling holding the ban unconstitutional in 2005. Just Google the case name. Gonzalez v. Carhart upheld the ban. Sotomayor saying that's settled law is a good thing...the problem is that she probably doesn't mean it.

A two year old ruling is not “settled law” in my book, I don’t care if it was affirmed or not.
