The Supreme Court on June 27 decided to dismiss Idaho’s appeal against a lower court ruling that granted an exception to its strict abortion law for abortions deemed to be medical emergencies.

The decision allows emergency abortions to proceed in Idaho, while a challenge to the state’s abortion law moves through the lower courts.
