(Missouri Independent) – A federal case challenging the safety of mifepristone, used to treat miscarriages and to induce abortions early in pregnancy, is being transferred out of Texas to a federal court in Missouri.
Two, Josh Divine and Maria Lanahan, worked on the Mifepristone case before their appointments.
“This order ensures Missouri’s case will be heard where it belongs: in Missouri,” the Missouri Attorney General’s Office said in a statement Wednesday.
The Missouri Attorney General’s Office has argued in court filings that the lawsuit was filed to re-establish “long-standing safety requirements” for mifepristone.
“All of this makes it difficult for state law enforcement to detect and deter state law violations and to give effect to state abortion laws,” the attorneys general wrote.
