North Dakota high court: Judge should revisit abortion order

FARGO, N.D. (AP) — The North Dakota Supreme Court ordered a lower court judge to reconsider his decision to prevent the state's abortion ban from taking effect pending the outcome of a clinic's legal challenge.

The state Supreme Court late Tuesday ordered Judge Bruce Romanick to weigh the clinic’s chances of succeeding in reconsidering whether his decision to temporarily halt enforcement of the ban was correct.

The Red River Women’s Clinic, the state’s only abortion clinic, argues that the state’s constitution grants the right to abortion.

Romanick last month denied a request to lift his stay of a law banning abortion while the clinic's challenge is pending. In declining to weigh in on the clinic's chances of winning the lawsuit, Romanick wrote that doing so “would essentially have the court determine the final validity of the parties' claims.” That question, he said, was better addressed at a trial or in response to a motion for summary judgment.
