Judge dismisses Arizona Right to Life lawsuit, keeping abortion rights initiative on November ballot.

Judge dismisses lawsuit from anti-abortion group Arizona Right to Life, allowing abortion rights initiative to remain on November ballot. The initiative, Proposition 139, aims to enshrine the right to abortion in Arizona's constitution, with restrictions only after fetal viability at 22-24 weeks, or in life-threatening situations or physical/mental health cases. The case now moves to Arizona Supreme Court, where anti-abortion advocates have requested Justice William Montgomery's recusal due to potential bias.
