yahoo excerpt:
The South Carolina Supreme Court on Thursday struck down the stateâs six-week abortion ban, ruling the privacy rights in the state constitution protect abortion access.
The 3-2 decision allows abortion to remain legal in the state until 20 weeks of pregnancy, and is a setback for Republican lawmakers who had hoped this year to ban abortion after conception.
The majority opinion noted that while the state may limit a personâs right to privacy âany such limitation must be reasonableâ and âafford a woman sufficient time to determine she is pregnant and take reasonable steps to terminate that pregnancy.â The court said that six weeks is âquite simply, not a reasonable period of time for those two things to occur.â
Four of the courtâs five justices are registered Republicans, while Chief Justice Donald Beatty is a Democrat, and all were appointed by the Republican-controlled legislature.
