North Carolina is expected to remain a Destination for Abortions in the South, following Two Decisions on Friday, in a Federal Case Litigating New State Law.
Judge Catherine Eagles decided on a Permanent Block for part of the Legislation that says Doctors must Document the Location of a Pregnancy before prescribing Abortion Pills. Reasonable Enforcement would be Challenging, She said. Eagles issued the Injunction for it last year.
In another Section of the Law, Eagles ruled Abortions after 12 weeks of Pregnancy must be performed in Hospitals, the Doctor is associated with.
Eagles is the Chief Judge at the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina.
Her Rulings are on what is known as the "Care for Women, Children, and Families Act", or Senate Bill 20. Included in the Law are No Abortions after 12 weeks, down from 20, except in Cases of Rape, Incest, or Life-Limiting Anomalies.
Plaintiffs are: Planned Parenthood South Atlantic, and others including Dr. Beverly Gray of Duke Health.
Josh Stein (D), in His Role as State Attorney General, Kody Kinsley (D) as Secretary of the State Department of Health and Human Services (DHS), and State Sen. Phil Berger (R) as President Pro- Tempore of the Upper Chamber, and others, are the Defendants or what is known as Intervenor Defendants.
Counsel for Republican Leaders of the General Assembly have Defended the Law, in the Absence of Stein's Willingness on Behalf of His Departmen-of-Justice.
