This lawsuit challenged Mississippi’s attempt to end legal abortion in the state by attempting to shut down its one remaining abortion clinic. Mississippi passed a law in 2012 explicitly intended to shut down its last abortion clinic by requiring that all physicians associated with an abortion facility have admitting privileges at a local hospital and limiting the provision of abortion care to board certified or board eligible OB-GYNs.
