Louisiana can now enforce a near-total ban on abortion after a temporary restraining order expired on Friday.
State District Judge Ethel Julien granted the state’s request to move the case to a court in Baton Rouge — in effect allowing a temporary restraining order that had blocked the abortion ban to expire. Another judge will now decide whether to grant a preliminary injunction to again block the trigger law.
“The fight is far from over, and we’re looking forward to litigating the trigger bans before the court of Baton Rouge,” said Joanna Wright, an attorney for the plaintiffs challenging the ban. Louisiana’s trigger law, enacted in 2006, prohibits abortions except when a pregnant person’s life is in danger; abortion providers risk being charged with a felony crime punishable with up to 10 years in prison and a fine of up to $100,000. The state has passed multiple abortion restrictions in recent years.
