Dec. 16 (UPI) -- The U.S. Supreme Court on Thursday announced it was formally sending the highly publicized case over Texas' six-week abortion ban, back to a federal appeals court.
Justice Neil Gorsuch signed the order, saying the appeals court should be responsible for handling the case, rejecting an argument made by doctors and abortion providers to send it back to a trial judge. That judge had originally ruled that the law was unconstitutional.
