The justices, in a brief order, granted emergency requests by the Justice Department and the pill's manufacturer Danco Laboratories to put on hold an Apr 7 preliminary injunction issued by US District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk in Texas. The judge's order would greatly limit the availability of mifepristone while litigation proceeds in a challenge by anti-abortion groups to its federal regulatory approval.
The New Orleans-based 5th US Circuit Court of Appeals on Apr 12 declined to block the curbs ordered by Kacsmaryk. The 5th Circuit did halt a part of Kacsmaryk's order that would have suspended the FDA approval of the drug and effectively pull it off the market. The administration and Danco told the justices in their filings that mifepristone might not be available for months if the restrictions were allowed to take effect.
