The Kentucky Supreme Court has ruled to keep the state's near-total ban on abortions in place. The decision dashes the hope of clinics that sued for the right to resume providing the procedure as legal challenges continue.

argue on Nov. 15

that both the state’s near-total ban on the procedure beginning at conception and a separate law banning abortion after six weeks of pregnancy violate the privacy rights that the state constitution adopted in 1891. During oral arguments in the case, the American Civil Liberties Union in Kentucky argued on behalf of clinics in the state that the abortion restrictions are causing “irreparable harm” to patients who are undergoing the “pain and trauma” of being forced to bear children they don’t want or having to search for ways to travel out of state for the procedure.

Justice Lambert ruled Thursday that the clinics don’t have standing to challenge the laws on behalf of their patients, but do have standing to argue that the state’ s abortion bans violate protections in the state’s constitution.
