At this stage in the legal battle between Planned Parenthood and the state of Texas, the U.S. Supreme Court won’t block Texas’ new abortion laws.
U.S. District Judge Lee Yeakel of the Western District of Texas on Oct. 28 had enjoined elements of the new laws, largely holding the two statutes unconstitutional. But the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit issued a stay reversing Yeakel’s injunction. Planned Parenthood then filed an application with the high court to vacate the stay.
