A lawsuit filed against Indiana’s abortion ban has finally found a judge after two judges had recused themselves from the case.

The lawsuit, filed on Aug. 30, challenged Senate Bill 1 (SB 1), which was recently signed into law by Republican Gov. Eric Holcomb. This was the first new abortion ban passed by a state legislature following the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade. The case first went to Monroe Circuit Court Judge Holly Harvey who recused herself from presiding over it.
