Utah abortion restrictions

SALT LAKE CITY — The Utah Supreme Court ruled that a state court was allowed to enjoin Senate Bill 174, which prohibits abortion at all stages of pregnancy except when it would save a mother’s life, the fetus has a lethal condition or severe brain abnormality, or when the pregnancy was caused by rape or incest. Planned Parenthood, which challenged the law, has standing to sue and presented serious issues about the law’s constitutionality and risks it poses to patients’ rights.
