Georgia Supreme Court Reinstates Six-Week Abortion Ban During Appeal Process
Oct 7, 2024, 05:18 PM
Georgia's Republican Attorney General Chris Carr has appealed a judge's decision that invalidated the state's six-week abortion ban. The appeal follows a ruling by Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney on Monday, who struck down the ban, which had been in effect since 2022. The Georgia Attorney General's office moved swiftly to appeal the decision, requesting the Georgia Supreme Court to allow the state to enforce the ban during the appeal process. The Georgia Supreme Court has now reinstated the six-week abortion ban, granting the state's request for a stay pending the appeal. The court's decision, with one justice dissenting, puts the ban back in effect as of 5 PM today.
