A Texas judge granted a request on Thursday to allow an abortion despite the
state’s strict bans, ruling in the case of a pregnant woman whose fetus was
diagnosed with a fatal condition.

The judge, Maya Guerra Gamble of Travis County district court, sided with the
woman, Kate Cox, who is 20 weeks pregnant, and issued a temporary restraining
order to permit her doctor to perform an abortion without facing civil or
criminal penalties.

The judge, a Democrat, agreed with Ms. Cox’s lawyers that the procedure was
necessary to protect Ms. Cox from a potentially dangerous birth, and to preserve
her future fertility.
