Case Summary

This case, brought in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia on June 20, 2018, challenged the constitutionality of several Virginia statutes and regulations that governed the provision of abortion care throughout the state.

This case, brought in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia on June 20, 2018, challenged the constitutionality of several Virginia statutes and regulations that governed the provision of abortion care throughout the state. The plaintiffs were a series of Virginia healthcare providers that provided elective abortion care, gynelogical, and family planning services. Represented by the ACLU, the Center for Reproductive Rights, Planned Parenthood, and a private law firm, plaintiffs sought declaratory and injunctive relief to enjoin enforcement of licensing provisions, oversight regulations, and statutes related to abortion care, along with state criminal laws enacted to enforce these statutes and regulations. Plaintiffs named nine Virginia state and local officials with enforcement power over these regulations in their official capacity as defendants. The case was assigned to Judge Henry E. Hudson.

The plaintiffs challenged four statutory provisions. First, Va. Code Ann. § 32.1-127(B)(1) (the “Licensing Statute”) classified any facility “in which five or more first trimester abortions per month are performed” as a “hospital.” It required the Virginia Board of Health to establish and promulgate minimum standards for facility licensing. The regulations stemming from this statute (the “Licensing Regulations”) included a definition of “hospital” that required specific maintenance, staffing, equipping, training, and other standards. An additional regulatory provision authorized agents of the Virginia Department of Health to enter abortion facilities and conduct inspections under certain circumstances.

Second, Va. Code Ann. § 18.2-73 (the “Hospital Requirement”) and its associated regulations required all second trimester abortions to be performed in general or outpatient surgical hospitals, making it lawful for a licensed physician to provide a second trimester abortion so long as it was conducted in a Virginia Department of Health (VDH)-licensed hospital. By function of the regulations, however, second trimester abortions could not be conducted in abortion care facilties, even those categorized as a “hospital.” 

Third, Va. Code Ann. § 18.2-72 (the “Physician-Only Law”) permitted only physicians licensed by the Virginia Board of Medicine to perform abortion procedures in the state, precluding other licensed medical professionals (such as Nurse Practitioners and Physicians Assistants) from doing so. 

Fourth, Va. Code Ann. § 18.2-76 (the “Two-Trip Mandatory Delay Law”) required that a woman receive an ultrasound at least twenty-four hours before an abortion if she lives less than 100 miles from the location where the procedure would be performed, with some limited exceptions. 

Plaintiffs alleged that the Licensing Statute, Licensing Regulations, Hospital Requirement, Physician-Only Law, and Two-Trip Mandatory Delay Law violated plaintiffs’ and their patients’ right to liberty and privacy as guaranteed by the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment by imposing an undue burden on the fundamental right to choose abortion prior to viability. Plantiffs further alleged a cumulative burden claim in which all of the aforementioned statutes and regulations violated plaintiffs’ patients’ rights to liberty and privacy as guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment because they had the unlawful purpose and effect of imposing an undue burden on the fundamental right to choose abortion before viability. 

Additionally, plaintiffs alleged that the Hospital Requirement, in conjunction with associated criminal penalties, was unconstitutionally vague by failing to define the terms “hospital” and “second trimester of pregnancy,” thus violating plaintiffs’ and their patients’ Fourteenth Amendment due process rights. 

Finally, plaintiffs challenged the Licensing Regulations as an unconstitutional violation of plaintiffs’ and their patients’ right to be free from unreasonable searches and seizures under the Fourth Amendment, as they required the Virginia Department of Health to conduct at least biennial unannounced, warrantless inspections of plaintiff’ facilities without probable cause. 

In July 2018, defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Hospital Requirement claims for lack of standing, and moved to dismiss the remaining claims for relief for failure to state a claim. In the alternative, with respect to the challenge to the Licensing Regulations, defendants asked the court to abstain from action and dismiss without prejudice due to ongoing state, judicial, and administrative proceedings. 

Regarding the standing issue, defendants argued that each plaintiff facility statutorily qualified as a hospital, so they could not be subject to prosecution and thus could not establish an injury in fact. The court rejected this argument, holding that the alleged regulatory burden placed on abortion providers was enough to state a qualitatively sufficient, legally-protected interest. Even if defendants were correct that the plaintiff facilities would not be subject to criminal prosecution, the plaintiff physician still would be. 

However, the court granted defendants’ motion to dismiss the cumulative burden claim because “the collective impact of the statutes and regulations at issue” would not “be considered a separate claim for relief.” The court additionally dismissed the vagueness claim because the statutes, though not a “model of clarity,” still provided “ample guidance” as to what statutorily constitutes a hospital and the second trimester of pregnancy. The court declined to dismiss the remaining Fourteenth Amendment claims regarding the Hospital Requirement, the Physician-Only Law, and the Two-Trip Mandatory Delay Law. Additionally, the court allowed the Fourth Amendment claim to go forward because defendants did not adequately address this claim in their memoranda in support of the motion to dismiss. 

On September 30, 2019, after an eight day bench trial, Judge Hudson issued an opinion enjoining enforcement of the Licensing Statute, Licensing Regulations, and Hospital Requirement as to first trimester and pre-viability, non-surgical second trimester abortion procedures. However, the court did not find constitutional violations regarding the Physician-Only Law, the Two-Trip Mandatory Delay Law, or the facility inspection requirement. 412 F.Supp.3d 668.

The court determined that the Licensing Regulations imposed a significant monetary burden on plaintiffs and concluded that they serve “no valid state interest with respect to first trimester procedures,” thus violating the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. However, the court declined to invalidate the entire statutory and regulatory scheme for the licensing and hospital requirements because the evidence revealed that “the risk of complications increases with the progression of gestational development within the second trimester.” 

However, the court enjoined the Hospital Requirement as to pre-viability, non-surgical second trimester abortion procedures. It cited expert testimony stating that both first and second trimester abortions can be performed in an outpatient clinic, and it also noted that the Hospital Requirement was over 40 years old, when second trimester procedures were performed by induction. 

Regarding the Physician-Only Law, the court acknowledged that plaintiffs demonstrated that advanced practice clinicians (APCs) are capable of safely performing first trimester abortion procedures, and that “the requirement that the procedure be tundertaken by a physician is inconvenient, and perhaps for those living in more rural areas, a burden.” However, the court noted the extensive precedent (including Roe v. Wade) indicated that states have the right to determine what medical procedures should be performed by physicians. Although some burden existed, the evidence had not shown that “such a restruction has caused an undue burden on a significant number of women seeking abortion care.” Therefore, the court could not conclude that the Physician-Only Law was unconstitutional, for both first-trimester and second-trimester abortions. 

Similarly, despite evidence of significant burden, the court was not persuaded by a preponderance of the evidence that the Two-Trip Mandatory Delay Law amounted to a “substantial obstacle preventing women’s access to abortion in Virginia” in violation of the Fourteenth Amendment. The court acknowledged that the waiting period adds “logistical complexity to an existing myriad of hardships faced by those with limited resources and support networks,” but the state’s “profound interest in potential life” outweighed the burden in this case. 

Finally, the court rejected plaintiffs’ claim alleging that the Licensing Regulations violated the Fourth Amendment’s guarantee against unreasonable search and seizure. Plaintiffs had argued that their consent to the VDH inspections was necessarily involuntary and thus unreasonable. However, the court noted that “suspension of a license is not a certain consequence,” and an abortion facility can still refuse to grant entry to government inspectors if it chooses. Therefore, plaintiffs failed to establish that their consent to VDH inspections was involuntary and that a Fourth Amendment violation occurred. 

There was no appeal. Instead, following a 2019 election in which Democrats won control of the state legislature for the first time, the state legislature passed a new law, the Reproductive Health Protection Act.  Va. Code Ann. §§ 16.1-77, 18.2-72, 18.2-76, 32.1-127. The new statute repealed the remainder of the challenged laws in this case that the court had not already struck down. Therefore, the plaintiffs voluntarily dismissed the action on July 28, 2020.

This case is now closed.

ORDER that this matter is before the Court on two Motions (ECF Nos. 30, 32), both filed by Plaintiffs on August 16, 2018. In their first Motion, Plaintiffs move to join an additional party and amend their Complaint. In their second Motion, they move for this Court to enter a protective order enabling Dr. Jane Doe to proceed under a pseudonym. Thus, in essence, Plaintiffs are seeking to join an additional permissive plaintiff to the case, they are requesting leave of Court to amend their Complaint (ECF No. 1 ) to reflect this addition, and they are requesting that the Court protect the new plaintiffs identity by permitting her to proceed anonymously. Pursuant to this Court's August 1, 2018 Scheduling Order (ECF No. 27 ) and Fed. R. Civ. P. 15(a)(2), and finding it appropriate to do so, the Court hereby GRANTS Plaintiffs' Motion to Join an Additional Party and Amend Complaint (ECF No. 30 ) (please see Order for additional information.) Having reviewed the reasons set forth in Plaintiffs' Motion and being satisfied that no argument is necessary prior to ruling on it, the Court hereby GRANTS Plaintiffs' Motion for a Protective Order for Dr. Jane Doe to Proceed under Pseudonym (ECF No. 32 ). See Fed. R. Civ. P. 78. In granting this Motion, the Court finds that the "reasonable fear of harassment, intimidation, and physical harm to [Dr. Jane Doe] and the members of her family," (Mem. in Supp. Pl.'s Mot. 4, ECF No. 33 ) outweighs the public's interest in openness and knowing the names of the litigants. In addition, the Court finds that there is little risk of unfairness to the Defendants, each of whom is a government official, by permitting Dr. Jane Doe to proceed under this pseudonym. Accordingly, Plaintiffs are DIRECTED to file their Amended Complaint within fourteen (14) days of this Order. Further, the Clerk is DIRECTED to send a copy of this Order to all counsel of record. It is so ORDERED. Signed by District Judge Henry E. Hudson on 08/20/2018. (walk, ) (Entered: 08/20/2018)
