The South Carolina General Assembly elected Judge Gary Hill to the South Carolina Supreme Court Wednesday, making the state supreme court the only one of its kind in the United States with no woman on the bench. The all-male bench emerges the same week that women's reproductive rights and abortion bans continue to dominate state politics.
"Several in the legal circle have a great deal of respect for Hill,"Teague said. It was regrettable that South Carolina would be the only state not to have a woman on the Supreme Court bench. "But that's not Justice Hill's fault," she said.
