: Legal Pad | LAFederal judge says California challenge to abortion law too early
By Jason Siegel
U.S. District Judge Jeffrey White tossed California's challenge to a national abortion law on Tuesday, CBS 8 reported. The state sued because of what was left out of an amendment to a federal bill in 2004 penalizing states that discriminate against doctors who won't provide abortions. Unlike California law, the federal law had no exception for medical emergencies - such as when childbirth risks the woman's life or health. White said the state suit was premature. The federal government hasn't threatened to withhold funding over an emergency abortion first.
