Louisiana Supreme Court Allows Abortions to Remain Legal Despite ‘Trigger Law’

The Louisiana Supreme Court refused to overturn a lower court ruling preventing the state from enforcing its ban on abortion.

In a 4-2 ruling late Wednesday, the majority of justices said the court will decline to be involved “at this preliminary stage” in denying the state attorney general’s request to allow immediate enforcement of state laws against most abortions.

The decision allows a lower court ruling that blocked enforcement of the state’s “trigger law” to stand. A district court judge last week imposed a temporary stay on enforcement following a legal challenge from abortion providers in the state who argued the law was overly vague.

The lower court ruling will remain in place as abortion providers make their case in court on Friday. (Read more from “Louisiana Supreme Court Allows Abortions to Remain Legal Despite ‘Trigger Law’” HERE)
