Bradwell v. Illinois, 83 U.S. 130 (1872):

In Bradwell v. State of Illinois, the Supreme Court ruled that the Privileges or Immunities Clause of the 14th Amendment did not include the right to practice a profession.

Myra Bradwell had applied for admission to the Illinois bar, but was denied because she was a woman.

This Supreme Court decision allowed states to continue to bar women from professions such as law.
