    United States: A judge in a Texas court has temporarily lifted the southern US state’s abortion ban for women who are facing severe pregnancy complications. A group of Women and doctors had filed a case pointing out the ban’s obscurity.

    Judge Ms. Jessica Mangrum stated there was a lack of clarity in the legislation, agreeing with women and doctors who had sued Texas over the ban in March 2023. The case filed by the Centre for Reproductive Rights argues that the way medical exceptions are described in Texas’ laws is confusing, stoking fear among doctors and causing a “health crisis.” The judge added that physicians cannot be prosecuted for exercising their “good faith judgement.”

    However, the temporary injunction will be implemented until the lawsuit is decided, per the statement. The Texas law is one of the strictest in the US, banning all abortions except in dire medical circumstances. Breaking the ban can lead to a $100,000 fine and a potential life sentence.

    In 2022, the legislation was introduced shortly after the Supreme Court’s 50-year-old Roe v. Wade decision was overturned, leading to the loss of the constitutional right to abortion for millions of women nationwide. The case against this law aims to give doctors the right to determine when an abortion is necessary.

    Judge Ms. Mangrum wrote that women were “delayed or denied access to abortion care because of the widespread uncertainty regarding physicians’ level of discretion under the medical exception to Texas’s abortion bans.”
