Sherry Boston, the DeKalb County district attorney, has made it clear she won’t enforce a new state law banning most abortions because she thinks the law is unconstitutional. But she is fighting any order barring her from enforcing the law—the one she said she won’t enforce.

Boston and five other district attorneys are defendants along with Gov. Brian Kemp, Attorney General Chris Carr and a host of other officials in a suit brought by plaintiffs arguing that the law is unconstitutional. Along with asking for a decision striking down the law, the challengers have asked U.S. District Judge Steve Jones of the Northern District of Georgia to issue an injunction against Boston and the other  district attorneys so they won’t enforce the new law, which takes effect Jan. 1.
