Restrictive abortion laws were temporarily struck down in Ohio and Arizona, two states where abortion services have been in flux in the wake of Roe v. Wade being overturned.
Meanwhile, in Arizona, a court issued a stay Friday on a near-total abortion ban with criminal penalties, temporarily blocking enforcement of the ban while an appeal filed by Planned Parenthood Arizona proceeds.

Wade abortion decision.in late September after the Pima County Superior Court lifted an injunction on the abortion ban.
A 15-week ban, which prohibits abortions "except in a medical emergency," was passed by the Arizona legislature earlier this year. After the Supreme Court overturned Roe, state Attorney General Mark Brnovich said he would seek to lift the injunction on the older, more restrictive law. Since Roe was overturned, Arizona abortion providers have either suspended or limited services due to confusion over the two bans.In issuing the stay, Judge Peter Eckerstrom stated, "Arizona courts have a responsibility to attempt to harmonize all of this state's relevant statutes.
. "For over 100 days, Arizonans have experienced pure chaos and confusion and it has been traumatic for our physicians and staff who have been forced to notify patients that they can no longer care for them."
