I am curious, though, what would be "sufficient evidence" for the risk to the fetus and the mother beyond the medical diagnostics and the typical course of the condition?
We now know the answer
Quote: “The exception requires a doctor to decide whether Ms. Cox’s difficulties pose such risks,” the ruling continues. “(A doctor) asked a court to pre-authorize the abortion yet she could not, or at least did not, attest to the court that Ms. Cox’s condition poses the risks the exception requires.”
Seems like people should be upset with the doctor and not Ken Paxton.
