A federal district court in Texas will hear a challenge to the federal government's approval of a common medication abortion drug. Here are four things to know about the hearing in the case, Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine v. FDA.
A federal district court in Texas will hear a challenge to the federal government's approval of a common medication abortion drug on Wednesday, leaving an opening for a lone judge to issue a preliminary injunction that could withdraw or suspend the drug's approval nationwide while the lawsuit plays out.
Only lawyers will be allowed to bring in electronic devices to the Wednesday hearing, a common practice in high-profile court cases and there will not be an online broadcast of the hearing. David Cohen, a law professor at Drexel University's Thomas R. Kline School of Law, previously said the impact of the judge's decision could be minimal compared to the fears expressed by defenders of the drug.
