Michigan judge rules 1931 law criminalizing abortion is unconstitutional – By Andrew Mark Miller (FOX News) / Sept 7, 2022
Michigan’s Republican-controlled legislature is expected to appeal
A Michigan judge has struck down the state’s 1931 law banning abortions months after suspending it.
Michigan Court of Claims Judge Elizabeth Gleicher on Wednesday ruled that the 1931 law criminalizing most abortions is unconstitutional.
Separately, the Michigan Supreme Court still is considering whether to place a proposed amendment on the Nov. 8 ballot that would add abortion rights to the state constitution.
The 1931 law makes it a crime to perform abortions unless the life of the mother is in danger.
