The Trump administration intends to drop a lawsuit filed by the previous administration that sought to permit Idaho healthcare practitioners to perform emergency abortions, a new court filing shows.

The court filing, which includes a U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) attorney’s email explaining the department’s intentions, came on March 4. On March 5 at 3 p.m., a federal district judge in Boise is scheduled to hear a motion from a healthcare system in a related case for a preliminary injunction allowing its physicians to perform emergency abortions in the state.
