A class action lawsuit was filed yesterday in an Indiana state trial court court on behalf of all persons in the state whose religious beliefs direct them to obtain abortions in situations prohibited by the state's recently enacted restrictive abortion ban. The suit was filed by five anonymous plaintiffs and an organization, Hoosier Jews For Choice. The complaint (full text) in Anonymous Plaintiffs 1-5 v. Individual Members of the Medical Licensing Board of Indiana, (IN Super. Ct., filed 9/8/2022), contends that the law violates Indiana's Religious Freedom Restoration Act. ACLU issued a press release announcing the filing of the lawsuit.
