PA Abortionist's Suit Given Go-Ahead

A King of Prussia abortion provider will be allowed to argue in federal court that Upper Merion Township violated the facility's constitutional rights by selectively enforcing the zoning code. Associates in Obstetrics and Gynecology, which did business as American Women's Services, claims the township cited it for a zoning provision that restricts clinics to sites of three or more acres solely because the facility provided abortions. American Women's Services filed the federal civil-rights lawsuit in April against the township Board of Supervisors, the Zoning Hearing Board, the township manager and the township zoning officer.
