On Thursday, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a decision allowing the abortion pill to continue to be dispensed through the mail as a Louisiana lawsuit proceeds.

Key Takeaways:

The U.S. Supreme Court issued a decision on May 14 stating that the abortion pill can continue to be dispensed through the mail as Louisiana’s lawsuit proceeds.

The abortion pill manufacturer Danco Laboratories filed an emergency application before the Supreme Court on May 2, requesting a stay be placed on the Fifth Circuit’s decision.
The Supreme Court granted that request, allowing the abortion pill to be shipped through the mail again until at least May 11. It then extended the stay until May 14.

The Details:

On May 4, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a temporary administrative stay (pause) on a ruling from the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals that had suspended abortion pill dispensing by mail. The Supreme Court’s stay allowed mail-order dispensing of the abortion pill to resume until May 11, but the Court then extended its ruling through May 14.
