Court to Hear Arguments on Whether an Abortion Ends Human Life
(CNSNews.com) - A federal appeals court will hear arguments Wednesday in a potentially groundbreaking case that — for the first time, according to attorneys — addresses the question of whether an abortion terminates a human being’s life.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 8th Circuit in St. Louis will consider a 2005 South Dakota law that requires abortionists to tell women that their abortion will terminate the life of a living human being.
The judges will hear Planned Parenthood’s claim that a “statute designed to protect the rights, interests and health of pregnant women violates the abortion doctors’ right of free speech,” said attorney Harold J. Cassidy, who is representing pro-life pregnancy help centers which have joined the state as defendants in the case.
