JUST IN | A special judge has granted a preliminary injunction in a lawsuit against Indiana's new abortion law, effectively putting enforcement of the restrictions as hold while the case proceeds.
BLOOMINGTON — A special judge has granted a motion for a preliminary injunction in a lawsuit against Indiana's new abortion law, effectively blocking its enforcement as the case proceeds.
Previously, Hanlon denied a motion for a temporary restraining order filed by the plaintiffs, which includes several Planned Parenthood chapters. The new abortion law went into effect Sept. 15. It prevents women from having an abortion except in instances of rape and incest before 10 weeks post-fertilization or in which the mother's life is threatened.
