Florida’s abortion measure is mirrored on the Mississippi law at the heart of the Supreme Court case that overturnedDeSantis on Friday, just hours after the high court issued its opinion, said Florida will expand “pro-life protections” but provided no details.
Monday’s hearing included testimony from Shelly Hsiao-Ying Tien, a Jacksonville-based doctor who is one of the plaintiffs challenging the law. Tien said most people who have an abortion after 15 weeks of pregnancy are struggling economically, living in poverty, facing serious medical complications or they are involved in a violent intimate relationship.Tien also said the 15-week ban would scare away doctors from providing abortions.
The law is set to go into effect on Friday, but the judge in the case, Circuit Judge John Cooper, said he will announce his ruling on Thursday over whether to temporarily halt it as the case winds through the court system. Lawyers for the office of state Attorney General Ashley Moody told Cooper they are packing the case with information with an expectation that the outcome will set a new precedent.
“That’s why I set another day, on top of today, so that we can talk about these things,” Cooper said.
