Georgia Supreme Court reinstates six-week abortion ban while state appeals

[RandySF]

Georgia’s six-week abortion ban is back in effect after a Georgia Supreme Court decision Monday shut off access to expanded services just one week after a Fulton County judge ruled that the 2019 law is unconstitutional.

Local prosecutors, though, will continue to be blocked from acquiring health records where an abortion has been performed under the state Supreme Court’s ruling.

Six justices – Michael P. Boggs, Sarah Hawkins Warren, Charles J. Bethel, Carla Wong McMillian, Shawn Ellen LaGrua and Verda M. Colvin – backed the decision to block the lower court’s ruling.

Justice Nels S.D. Peterson was disqualified from the proceeding for an unstated reason, and Justice Andrew A. Pinson did not participate.
