supremecourt2016BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota’s sole abortion clinic in Fargo may challenge a state law requiring doctors who perform abortions to obtain hospital-admitting privileges now that a similar law in Texas has been struck down by the U.S. Supreme Court.
 
     The high court ruled 5-3 Monday that a 2013 Texas law places an “undue burden” on a woman’s right to end a pregnancy. North Dakota’s Legislature passed a similar law in 2013.
 
     The Red River Women’s Clinic in 2014 settled a lawsuit it filed over the law, after a Fargo hospital gave credentials to the clinic’s doctors.
 
     Clinic Director Tammi Kromenaker says lawyers for the facility are analyzing the Supreme Court’s decision. She says part of the North Dakota settlement allows the clinic to revive the lawsuit.
