(Columbia, SC) -- A South Carolina judge is allowing South Carolina's new abortion law to stay in effect.
On Tuesday, a Circuit Court judge denied a preliminary injunction request from Planned Parenthood South Atlantic, the Greenville Women's Clinic, and two physicians.
The lawsuit can still be appealed to the South Carolina Supreme Court.
