New York’s new Medical Aid in Dying law takes effect on Wednesday, and groups challenging the law in court received mixed results this week.
A federal judge dismissed one of the lawsuits on Thursday, while a judge in a separate case signed off on a temporary injunction regarding the plaintiffs in that case.
The state and a coalition of Catholic health providers agreed to that injunction and restraining order regarding enforcement law.
“Until our legal fight is resolved, this temporary agreement keeps our ministries free to serve every patient according to the Gospel.
