Judge blocks Michigan’s 1931 abortion ban

Michigan’s 1931 law criminalizing abortion will not go into effect if the Supreme Court overturns Roe V. Wade. Lawyers for Right to Life say it’s a rogue decision by the Michigan Court of Claims and vows litigation. The judge said that she found Planned Parenthood likely to be successful in the case, so she granted a preliminary injunction which means that the 1931 law will not go into effect while the case proceeds through the legal system.
