articleThe Brief Texas is suing a Delaware nurse practitioner for allegedly shipping abortion-inducing drugs to residents in violation of the state’s near-total ban. The lawsuit seeks civil penalties of at least $100,000 per shipment and permanent injunctions to stop the clinic's nationwide mail-order operations. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a lawsuit against a Delaware-based nurse practitioner, alleging she illegally shipped abortion-inducing drugs to women across Texas in violation of state law. The state alleges Lynch prescribed and mailed abortion drugs, including mifepristone and misoprostol, from Delaware to Texas residents despite Texas’ near-total abortion ban. In a press release on Tuesday, Paxton states that the clinic "routinely" sends these abortion drugs across state lines.
