A West Virginia judge on July 18 temporarily blocked the state’s pre-Roe abortion ban from taking effect.

The preliminary injunction issued by Kanawha County Circuit Judge Tera Salango came in a lawsuit filed in June on behalf of Women’s Health Center of West Virginia, the state’s only abortion clinic.
