The ruling said the law’s 15-week ban on abortions would remain blocked until the U.S. Supreme Court rules on a related case in Mississippi.
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — A federal judge on Thursday extended an order blocking key portions of a new Kentucky abortion law that had forced the state’s two clinics to temporarily halt abortions.
The ruling said the law’s 15-week ban on abortions would remain blocked until the U.S. Supreme Court rules on a related abortion case in Mississippi.
The ruling by U.S. District Judge Rebecca Grady Jennings means that Kentucky officials cannot enforce other disputed provisions until the state adopts and funds regulations under which abortion providers would have to comply.
