The legal fight over SB 8 will continue, as the 5th Circuit will now decide if Pitman's order can stand. 8 went into effect, women have been unlawfully prevented from exercising control over their lives in ways that are protected by the Constitution,вЂќ he wrote in a 113-page ruling.

Texas's six-week abortion ban is at least temporarily back in effect as of Friday night after a federal appeals court paused a lower court order from earlier this week that had halted enforcement of the law.
