Judge declines request to block Indiana abortion ban
(Worthy News) – An Indiana judge turned down on Thursday a request to block enforcement of the state’s abortion ban just hours after it took effect.
The ruling came in a lawsuit filed by abortion clinic operators who argue that the state constitution protects access to the procedure.
Special Judge Kelsey Hanlon didn’t give any explanation for her decision with the order denying a temporary injunction sought by the American Civil Liberties Union of Indiana, which is representing the clinics, but cited a court hearing set for Monday on the lawsuit.
