A Wisconsin judge was set to consider Thursday, May 4, 2023, whether Kaul can legally challenge the battleground state's 174-year-old abortion ban and whether the ban is so old its unenforceable. Kaul filed the lawsuit in June 2022, days after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe vs. Wade, the landmark ruling that legalized abortion nationwide.
