OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - An Oklahoma County judge has listened to oral arguments in a lawsuit over an Oklahoma law that requires women to have an ultrasound examination before getting an abortion.
Judge Vicki Robertson took the arguments under advisement Tuesday.
Tulsa's Reproductive Services filed a lawsuit in October challenging the constitutionality of the law which, among other things, requires women to listen to their doctor describe the image of their fetus revealed by the ultrasound.
