    The court is saying they don’t want to be involved and that the law ‘allows for abortions in cases of medical emergency.’ The problem is the state is separately saying that they’ll prosecute her for trying to get an abortion in the state. Basically Texas is trying to have it both ways where the state courts claim she is already entitled to have an abortion so there is no legal dispute, while the state is saying she’ll be prosecuted for having an abortion.
