A Texas ban on abortion was ruled too restrictive on women with serious complications in pregnancy by a judge on Friday. However that injunction was stopped by an appeal to the Texas Supreme Count, according to the Associated Press.
Judge Jessica Mangum had ruled that it was legal for physicians to end a pregnancy if it created a risk of infection, or in cases when the fetus is unlikely to survive after birth.
The case was the first brought by a woman denied an abortion since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, which had created a constitutional right to an abortion in 1973.
