§ 5/11-107.1 Injunctive relief for the father of an unborn child in an abortion related decision by the mother
§ 11-107.1. Injunctive relief for the father of an unborn child in an abortion related decision by the mother.
In any case when a married woman wishes to have an abortion performed upon her, and her spouse, who is the father of the unborn child, is opposed to the performance of that abortion, a court may hear testimony from both parties and balance the rights and interests of those parties.
When the interests of the husband in preventing the abortion outweigh those of the wife in having an abortion performed after the unborn child is viable, the court may issue an injunction against the performance of the abortion but only where the court makes a finding that the mother's life or physical health are not in danger.
