Attorneys for Planned Parenthood have described the law in court filings as an attempt by the Legislature “to accomplish by other means what the Utah courts have prevented it from doing directly — ban abortion in Utah.”
“It would not be fair at this point to shoot from the hip,” Stone said after hearing oral arguments on the motion, adding he’s going to take time to reread both parties’ briefs.
The law, introduced by Rep. Karianne Lisonbee, R-Clearfield, builds on both the blocked trigger ban and the 18-week ban to make numerous changes to abortion policy. The most impactful shifts include forcing abortions into facilities that meet the bill’s definition of a hospital, stopping license renewal for clinics in May and outright prohibiting clinics beginning in 2024.
The organization, which operates three of four abortion clinics in Utah and provides approximately 95% of abortions in the state, said in a news conference earlier this month that it will stop offering abortion services May 3 if the bill is allowed to go into effect. In light of HJR2′s changes, Stone briefly defended his standing injunction, saying, “I think the record from that first argument will show I went a little beyond just ‘serious issues.’”FOX13 reportedThe state appealed the injunction on the trigger ban to the Utah Supreme Court.
