The Supreme Court appears poised to allow abortions in medical emergencies in Idaho, according to a document that was erroneously posted on the court’s website briefly Wednesday, according to Bloomberg News. The opinion showed that a majority of the court agreed to dismiss the appeal, according to Bloomberg, which reported that it reviewed a copy of the opinion. The release was a stunning breach of protocol at the Supreme Court, which usually carefully guards the release of its opinions. The abortion case was considered among the most significant of the current term that is winding down ahead of the July 4 holiday. At issue is Idaho’s strict abortion ban, which provides an exception for the life of the pregnant woman. The Biden administration argued that a federal law also required hospitals to perform abortions in cases where the health of the pregnant woman is at stake. A dismissal would let stand an opinion from the full 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals that sided with the Biden administration in the case. CNN had not independently reviewed the opinion. Bloomberg did not post the document.
