South Dakota Abortion Law Upheld

September 9, 2008
On June 27, 2008, the federal court of appeals, in a 7-4 decision, upheld a South Dakota law requiring an extensive statement be made by physicians to women seeking an abortion, including the statement that "the abortion will terminate the life of a whole, separate, unique, living human being." In Planned Parenthood v. Rounds, the Court vacated a temporary injunction that had been issued by the trial court, which had blocked the law from going into effect.
