Mississippi's only abortion clinic to stay open under restraining order From Rich Phillips and George Howell, CNN July 2, 2012 -- Updated 0125 GMT (0925 HKT) "I'm jubilant," Diane Derzis, clinic owner and president, said of the temporary restraining order. Jackson Women's Health Organization filed for the action in response to a new state law The law requires abortion providers to be OB/GYNs and have area hospital privileges The order blocks enforcement of the law at least until a hearing scheduled for July 11 "We will speak with our attorneys regarding our game plan," legislation's sponsor says Jackson, Mississippi (CNN) -- A federal judge issued a temporary restraining order Sunday that will allow the only abortion clinic operating in Mississippi to stay open -- for now. The Jackson Women's Health Organization filed for the action in response to a new state law that would require a clinic's abortion providers to be certified OB/GYN practitioners, and for those physicians to all have privileges at an area hospital. The law, which took effect Sunday, puts the clinic at risk, as all its doctors do not have such privileges. The judge's order blocks enforcement of the law at least until the next hearing on the matter, which is scheduled for July 11. "I'm jubilant," said Diane Derzis, clinic owner and president. It means the constitutional rights of women to make their decision, for the time being, is in place. Officials at the Jackson clinic say they are working to comply with the law. They say they are trying to gain privileges at Jackson-area hospitals, but that the cumbersome process and red tape forced them to file for a reprieve. State Rep. Sam Mims, who sponsored the legislation, said "we will speak with our attorneys regarding our game plan," in response to the judge's order Sunday. Gov. Phil Bryant signed the bill into law in April after the Republican-dominated legislature overwhelmingly passed it. Mississippi is one of the toughest states on the abortion-rights movement. The state has laws requiring a 24-hour waiting period, as well as parental consent if the patient seeking an abortion is a minor. Mims previously told CNN the intent behind the legislation was to ensure that women undergoing abortions are receiving care from a certified, professional physician. And what happens afterwards, we'll have to see what happens," he said. But Derzis believes that the real intent of the newly elected Republican majority was to end abortion in the state, not to improve women's health care. Politics do not need to be in our uterus," she said.
