Texas man wants court order to investigate woman’s out-of-state abortion


A Texas man is seeking a court order so he can depose a woman he was dating who traveled to Colorado to get an abortion, in a case that may have ramifications in the ongoing legal battles over abortion rights.

Collin Davis, a resident of Brazos County, filed a legal petition in March stating that on February 20 — the day after he learned the woman intended to obtain the abortion — he retained an attorney, who sent the woman a letter requesting that she preserve all records related to her plans to terminate the pregnancy.

According to the petition, the letter warned that he “would pursue wrongful-death claims against anyone involved in the killing of his unborn child.”

Davis argues that the deposition is necessary to determine whether there was a violation of the Texas wrongful-death statute, which the petition references alongside a Texas civil code that includes among those defined as individuals “an unborn child at every stage of gestation from fertilization until birth.” His petition additionally points to Texas’ civil enforcement six-week abortion ban, known as SB 8.

What in the French toast f#&% is this nonsense?

 
Good lord, I would have sent her money to get it done and a gift card to her favorite store.  

Interesting that people would travel to another state where the penalty for "murder" is not a big deal compared to the state they are in.   Who could have seen that coming?

This is what I mean when I say too many red states have enacted draconian laws that are without common sense and compassion. 

The story goes on and state that she had to go out of state and found a hospital in Chicago to do the abortion.  However, there were complications from that abortion that ultimately would affect her ability to have a child in the future.   Good chance, if she had had the procedure in Tenn quickly after find out the abnormality, she would not have had the secondary issues. 

State of Tennessee took my fertility away - draconian state laws  

Tennessee woman who was denied an abortion despite a fatal abnormality says the state’s anti-abortion laws resulted in her losing an ovary, a fallopian tube and her hopes for a large family.

“The state of Tennessee took my fertility from me,” Breanna Cecil, 34, told The Independent. She added that state lawmakers “took away my opportunity to have a family like my own biological family because of these horrible laws that they put in place.”

 
The mother-of-one said she has not felt the same since her doctor told her in January 2023 that her fetus was diagnosed with acrania, a fatal condition where the fetus has no skull bones.




Then, 12 weeks pregnant, Ms Cecil was getting her first ultrasound. She attended the appointment alone, so when the doctor told her the fetus was not viable outside the womb, she was left with only asking the doctor what she should do.




However, she was left with few options. The state’s near-total abortion ban prevents anyone from getting an abortion if there is still a heartbeat - which her fetus still had.

Perhaps a little bit of a step back from the SCOTUS

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/supreme-court/supreme-court-acknowledges-document-pending-abortion-case-accidentally-rcna159081

The court appears set to allow emergency room doctors in Idaho to perform abortions in certain situations according to a copy of the decision, Bloomberg reported. The court is likely to dismiss the appeal brought by Idaho officials, Bloomberg said.

In doing so the court will allow a lower court ruling in favor of the Biden administration to go back into effect. Three conservative justices, Justice Clarence Thomas, Justice Samuel Alito and Justice Neil Gorsuch object to that conclusion, Bloomberg reported.

The case concerns whether a federal law that regulates emergency room treatment overrides Idaho's strict abortion ban. But if the court dismisses the appeal, the decision would leave the legal question unresolved.

Bloomberg reported that liberal Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wrote separately to say the court should have gone ahead and decided the bigger issue, which is likely to come up in another case in due course and would have an impact on other states with similar abortion restrictions as Idaho.

"Today’s decision is not a victory for pregnant patients in Idaho. It is delay,” she wrote, according to Bloomberg. “While this court dawdles and the country waits, pregnant people experiencing emergency medical conditions remain in a precarious position, as their doctors are kept in the dark about what the law requires," she added.

Idaho’s law says anyone who performs an abortion is subject to criminal penalties, including up to five years in prison. Health care professionals found to have violated the law can lose their professional licenses.

The federal government sued, leading a federal judge in August 2022 to block the state from enforcing provisions concerning medical care that is required under the federal Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act, or EMTALA.

That 1986 law mandates that patients receive appropriate emergency room care. The Biden administration argued that care should include abortions in certain situations when a woman’s health is imperiled even if death is not imminent.

Which again is why old a$$ men should have zero say in what women do to their body.  

Talk about it with them, sure, but once they make up their mind, nod your head and say "I support you" and that is it.

Prediction: this goes to the SC and abortion is no longer state choice and becomes illegal nationally, or at least closer to it. It would make it so no one in a state where abortion is illegal can travel to get one.
