(Columbia, SC)- South Carolina's governor and attorney general are petitioning the state's highest court to rehear an abortion ban.
Earlier this month the South Carolina Supreme Court ruled the state's fetal heartbeat law, which bans abortion at six weeks, violates constitutional rights to privacy.
Attorney General Alan Wilson has filed a petition, saying his office respectfully disagrees with the Court's decision.
Governor Henry McMaster also filed a petition requesting a rehearing.
