Texas has sought to fine a New York-based doctor who prescribed mifepristone to a Dallas woman, in a case likely headed to the Supreme Court.

A New York county clerk has again refused to file a more than $100,000 civil judgment from Texas against a doctor accused of prescribing abortion pills.

Acting Ulster County Clerk Taylor Bruck in a letter to the office of Republican Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton doubled down on his March finding that New York's so-called shield law precludes the enforcement of other states' abortion bans against New Yorkers.
