Bush appointee broke with the court’s majority on Friday, he argued that his colleagues should have allowed an April 12 ruling from the 5th Circuit to be implemented because the Biden administration and Danco Laboratories, the drug company that makes the brand-name version of mifepristone, didn’t show that they would “suffer irreparable harm” under that ruling.
