Extradition Battles Over Abortion: Constitutional and Practical Considerations
About this program
This program explores the escalating legal battle triggered by Louisiana’s indictment of a New York physician for prescribing abortion medication via telemedicine. With New York refusing extradition, the case exposes a constitutional showdown between states with opposing abortion laws. Drawing comparisons to antebellum extradition disputes and revisiting the federal Extradition Act, the program examines how these conflicts impact law enforcement coordination, the liability risks for out-of-state providers, and the legal tools available to both demanding and refusing states as similar cases emerge nationwide.
