FILE - This June 27, 2013 file photo shows Dr. Herbert Hodes in Topeka, Kan. The Kansas Supreme Court has ruled for the first time that the state constitution protects abortion rights and has blocked a first-in-the-nation ban on a common second trimester procedure. The court's ruling Friday, April 26, 2019, was a major victory for abortion rights supporters in a state with an anti-abortion Legislature. It prevents the state from enforcing a 2015 law that could have reduced second-trimester abortions and allows challenges to other restrictions under the state constitution.
