Planned Parenthood of the Heartland, Inc., Emma Goldman Clinic, and Jill Meadows v. Kim Reynolds, ex rel. State of…

Summary

The court was evenly divided, so the district court's denial of the State's motion to dissolve the permanent injunction was affirmed by operation of law. The controlling disposition did not adopt or reject the competing arguments concerning certiorari jurisdiction, modification of injunctions, or the constitutional standard governing abortion regulations. The nonbinding writing supporting affirmance reasoned that discretionary review should be denied and, alternatively, that the injunction remained valid under the existing undue-burden standard.
