A Michigan Court of Claims judge has issued a permanent halt to Michigan’s 1931 abortion ban. Judge Elizabeth Gleicher says the ban violates Michigan’s constitution. Attorney David Kallman disagrees.
“She does not have the authority to do,” says Kallman. “This is unlawful order. Our advice to any prosecutor out there is to carry out your duties and do it as you see fit and this cannot be used against you in any way.”
Kallman is representing Kent County Prosecutor Chris Becker in the legal battle over abortion. Becker has said he will enforce the law if asked.
