correction: "Decision Allows Woman's Abortion By JOANN LOVIGLIO
PHILADELPHIA (AP) � A judge Monday overturned his unusual decision that temporarily barred a woman from having an abortion, allowing her to end her pregnancy.
Luzerne County Common Pleas Judge Michael Conahan dissolved the temporary injunction forbidding Tanya Meyers, 23, from ending her pregnancy. He also dismissed the lawsuit filed by her ex-boyfriend, John Stachokus, who had sought to force her to carry her pregnancy to term.
``Her right to privacy has been restored and she is free to go on with her life,'' said Susan Fritchey, an attorney with the Women's Law Project and co-counsel for Meyers. ``It's a great relief for her.''"
considering the number of emails and discussions on this topic i've had today, i think it's a relief to a lot more people, too.
