The Missouri Supreme Court opened the door to abortions being halted again. The decision on Tuesday is part of a tumultuous legal saga. Voters struck down the state’s abortion ban last November. The state’s top court ruled that a district judge applied the wrong standard in rulings in December and February. Those rulings allowed abortions to resume in the state for the first time since they were nearly completely halted. The ban had taken effect after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022. In Tuesday’s two-page ruling, the court ordered the judge to vacate her earlier orders and reevaluate the case using the standards the court laid out.
