One exception is when it is necessary to prevent the death of the pregnant woman. Judge Jason D. Scott ruled that abortions are allowed if a doctor deems that the woman is likely to die sooner without an abortion than she would otherwise \u2014 even if her death \u201cis neither imminent nor assured.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The ruling, which kept the law in place, handed a partial victory to reproductive rights advocates and Idaho doctors who said the ban had forced them to wait for patients to reach the brink of death before they could act, or rush them out of state to get care elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cI feel very reassured\u201d by the ruling, said Dr. Emily Corrigan, an Idaho obstetrician-gynecologist who is one of the plaintiffs. \u201cI think there\u2019s many, many more case scenarios where the patient\u2019s condition would squarely fall within that exception.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Idaho\u2019s attorney general, Ra\u00fal Labrador, who was one of the defendants, said in a statement that Idaho law has never required doctors to wait until a woman\u2019s death is certain or imminent before providing an abortion. \u201cWhile we still disagree with portions of the ruling, it confirms what my office has argued in courts from Boise to Washington, D.C. \u2014 that Idaho\u2019s abortion laws are constitutional and protect both unborn children and their mothers,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">It was unclear on Saturday whether his office would appeal the decision.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The Idaho judgment arose from a lawsuit filed in September 2023 by the Center for Reproductive Rights on behalf of four women who said they had to leave the state to receive abortions after learning that they faced serious health risks or that their fetuses would not survive. The suit was joined by Dr. Corrigan, another physician and a family physicians\u2019 organization.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The plaintiffs argued that state law should permit abortions in cases where continuing a pregnancy is unsafe or where the fetus has been diagnosed with a fatal condition.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Judge Scott of Idaho\u2019s Fourth District did not go as far as the plaintiffs wanted, rejecting the claim that abortions should be allowed when a fetus won\u2019t survive.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">But he found that doctors may provide an abortion when, in their medical judgment, a patient \u201cfaces a non-negligible risk of dying sooner without an abortion,\u201d even if death is not certain or immediate. The exception does not apply when that risk arises from potential self-harm, the judge ruled.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The lead plaintiff, Jennifer Adkins, 33, was 12 weeks pregnant with her second child when doctors told her the fetus had a rare genetic condition that carried a high mortality rate and that her pregnancy was probably nonviable. Doctors said that if Ms. Adkins did not miscarry, she would be at high risk of developing a life-threatening condition called mirror syndrome. Ms. Adkins, who lives in Caldwell, Idaho, near Boise, ultimately traveled 400 miles to Portland, Ore., for an abortion.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">She said in an interview that she believed the judge\u2019s ruling would have allowed her to get care in her home state.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cHaving to go through something like that and lose a baby that you really, really wanted, in a place full of strangers, not surrounded by family and friends and providers that you know and trust, it was incredibly challenging, and it was incredibly sad,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In a separate case filed soon after the Supreme Court overturned the national right to abortion in 2022, the Biden administration <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/06\/27\/us\/politics\/supreme-court-idaho-abortion.html\" title=\"\">sued Idaho<\/a> over its abortion ban, arguing that the ban\u2019s strict limits violated a federal law that requires hospitals to provide emergency care, including abortions, to any patient.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Idaho argued that its ban complied with the federal law, called the <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/01\/18\/health\/emtala-abortion-supreme-court.html\" title=\"\">Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act<\/a> or EMTALA. Last year, the Supreme Court <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/06\/27\/us\/politics\/supreme-court-idaho-abortion.html\" title=\"\">handed a temporary victory<\/a> to the Biden administration, returning the case to a lower court that had put the ban on hold. But under the Trump administration, the Justice Department <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/03\/04\/us\/politics\/idaho-abortion-ban-trump.html\" title=\"\">dropped the lawsuit<\/a>, clearing the way for the ban to take effect in full.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In a similar lawsuit filed by St. Luke\u2019s Health System, the largest hospital system in the state, a federal judge issued an order last month shielding its doctors from prosecution if they provided abortions in emergencies.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Dr. Corrigan said Friday\u2019s ruling offers clarity to physicians statewide.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">While the ruling applies only in Idaho, abortion-rights advocates said it illustrated the need for clearer and broader exemptions in other states that strictly ban abortion.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThe problem, whether you\u2019re in Idaho or Texas or any of the other states that have a serious abortion ban, physicians are very conservative and very litigation-averse, very risk-averse,\u201d said Laura Hermer, a professor at Mitchell Hamline School of Law whose research focuses on reproductive rights. \u201cThe states are trying assiduously to put the onus of this burden on health care providers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Many abortion opponents agree with Mr. Labrador\u2019s contention that the existing exceptions are clear, and that doctors who claim otherwise are misreading the law.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Eleven other states <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/interactive\/2024\/us\/abortion-laws-roe-v-wade.html\" title=\"\">ban<\/a> abortion in almost all circumstances. Legal efforts to broaden the exemptions in those states have seen mixed results.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-4\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The Texas Supreme Court <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/05\/31\/us\/texas-abortion-ban-supreme-court.html\" title=\"\">rejected a lawsuit<\/a> that sought to expand exceptions for medical emergencies in the state, finding that the law already allowed abortions for women facing life-threatening conditions, \u201cbefore death or serious physical impairment are imminent.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1
