A judge in Fulton County, Georgia, has ruled against the state's six-week abortion ban, declaring it unconstitutional and preventing its enforcement. In a detailed 26-page opinion, Judge Robert McBurney stated that abortions should be regulated as they were prior to the enactment of the law, known as the Life Act, which was passed in 2019. The ban had been on hold while Roe v. Wade was in effect but was implemented following the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe in 2022.
