The states’ authority to shut down unhealthy and dangerous abortion businesses
Summary
ADF represented the Louisiana Health Director in a lawsuit brought by five abortion centers, who challenged his authority under recently enacted legislation to shut down dangerous and unhealthy abortion centers on an emergency basis. A federal court threw the abortion businesses’ suit out of court, and the decision was upheld on appeal by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit in New Orleans.
