The first hearing over a challenge to Georgia’s new abortion ban is set for Monday at 10 a.m. before Judge Steve Jones of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia.

Women’s equal rights and health activists challenging the law have asked for a temporary injunction blocking it while their lawsuit is pending. Attorneys representing the state have argued in pleadings that no injunction is necessary because the case can be decided before the law takes effect Jan. 1.
