COMPLAINT FOR DECLARATORY AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF
Plaintiffs, Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin, Inc. and Fredrik Broekhuizen, M.D.,
by their attorneys, Cullen Weston Pines & Bach LLP, allege as follows:
I.
NATURE OF THE ACTION
1.
This action for declaratory and injunctive relief is brought under the U.S.
Constitution and 42 U.S.C. § 1983 to challenge the constitutionality of Wis. Stat.
§§ 253.10(3)(b), 253.10(5) & (6), and 253.105(1)-(4), as created and amended by 2011 Wis.
Act 217. The provisions impose new requirements on medical providers in the
administering medications to terminate pregnancy and impose new regulations on the
physician-patient relationship in the context of providing services to women seeking to
terminate pregnancies. The provisions impose felony criminal sanctions and civil
Case: 3:12-cv-00913-bbc Document #: 1 Filed: 12/11/12 Page 3 of 24
4
liability on medical providers for violations of the provisions. Medical providers who
fail to comply with the statutory procedures also face professional discipline, up to and
including potential license revocation, by the Medical Examining Board. See Wis. Stat.
§ 448.02(3), Wis. Admin. Code § MED 10.02(2)(z).
2.
The Plaintiffs seek injunctive relief against the statutory provisions
enacted by 2011 Wis. Act 217, as identified below. The substantial ambiguity of the
provisions and uncertainty over the scope of the new statutory requirements has forced
the Plaintiffs to cease providing medication abortion services at their three clinics in
Wisconsin, due to concern that the provisions expose the Plaintiffs and their medical
providers to criminal penalties, professional disciplinary sanctions, and civil liability
and penalties if they provide such services using established, evidence-based medical
protocols.
3.
Since the provisions enacted by 2011 Wis. Act 217 became effective on
April 20, 2012, the Plaintiffs have been unable provide their patients with a safe, non-
invasive, effective medication to terminate a pregnancy in its early stages. The
challenged statutory provisions, due to their unconstitutional vagueness, have caused
and continue to cause irreparable harm to Plaintiffs and their patients.
II.
JURISDICTION AND VENUE
4.
The court has jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1331 and 1343 and 42 U.S.C.
§ 1983, as the complaint alleges the violation of rights guaranteed by the 5th and 14th
Amendments of the United States Constitution.
Case: 3:12-cv-00913-bbc Document #: 1 Filed: 12/11/12 Page 4 of 24
5
5.
The Plaintiffs’ action for declaratory and injunctive relief is authorized by
28 U.S.C. §§ 2201 and 2202.
6.
Venue in this court is proper under 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b) because a
substantial part of the events giving rise to this action occurred in this district.
III.
THE PARTIES
A.
Plaintiffs
7.
Plaintiff Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin (“PPW”) is a Wisconsin non-
profit corporation headquartered in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and operates reproductive
health care clinics in Milwaukee, Appleton, and Madison, Wisconsin.
8.
The PPW clinics in Milwaukee, Appleton, and Madison all provide
services to patients to terminate pregnancy, including both surgical abortions and
abortions induced by medication.
9.
As a provider of abortion services, PPW is subject to the statutory
requirements found in Wis. Stat. ch. 253 relating to abortion procedures, and is exposed
as a corporation to criminal penalties, civil penalties, and civil liability for violations of
the statutory requirements, as provided in Wis. Stat. ch. 253.
10.
Plaintiff Fredrik Broekhuizen, M.D., a medical doctor specializing in
obstetrics and gynecology, serves as medical director for Planned Parenthood of
Wisconsin. Dr. Broekhuizen provides medications to terminate pregnancy and other
reproductive health services to patients at Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin clinics.
11.
As a physician who performs and induces abortions, Dr. Broekhuizen is
subject to the statutory requirements found in Wis. Stat. ch. 253 relating to abortion
Case: 3:12-cv-00913-bbc Document #: 1 Filed: 12/11/12 Page 5 of 24
6
procedures, and is exposed to criminal penalties, civil penalties, and civil liability for
violations of the statutory requirements, as provided in Wis. Stat. ch. 253.
12.
As a medical provider, Dr. Broekhuizen also faces professional discipline,
up to and including potential license revocation, by the Medical Examining Board if he
fails to comply with the statutory requirements found in Wis. Stat. ch. 253 relating to
abortion procedures. See Wis. Stat. § 448.02(3), Wis. Admin. Code § MED 10.02(2)(z).
13.
Before the effective date of the statutory provisions enacted by 2011 Wis.
Act. 217, the PPW clinics in Milwaukee, Appleton, and Madison offered medications to
terminate pregnancy to patients who were determined to be medically eligible and
were seeking to terminate a pregnancy within the first 63 days after the patient’s last
menstrual period.
14.
After the April 20, 2012 effective date of 2011 Wis. Act 217, PPW ceased
offering abortion-inducing medication to medically eligible patients at all three clinics
out of fear that PPW and its medical providers would be exposed to potential criminal
penalties, civil liability, and disciplinary sanctions of they continued to provide the
medications using established, evidence-based medical protocols.
B.
Defendants
15.
J.B. Van Hollen is the Attorney General of the State of Wisconsin. As
Attorney General, Defendant Van Hollen has statutory authority to prosecute crimes as
special prosecutor when requested by a district attorney. See Wis. Stat. § 978.045. As
the chief law enforcement officer of the state and one of the state’s prosecuting
Case: 3:12-cv-00913-bbc Document #: 1 Filed: 12/11/12 Page 6 of 24
7
attorneys, Defendant Van Hollen is a government official with authority to prosecute
violations of the Act. He is sued in his official capacity.
16.
Ismael Ozanne is the elected District Attorney for Dane County,
Wisconsin. As District Attorney, Defendant Ozanne has the authority to prosecute
violations of the Act occurring in Dane County. See Wis. Stat. § 978.05(1). He is sued in
his official capacity and as a representative of a class of the 72 elected district attorneys
representing each of Wisconsin’s counties. Because violations of the Act or elements of
such violations could occur in any Wisconsin county, criminal charges under the Act
could be brought in any county. The class is so numerous that joinder of all members as
defendants is impracticable. The named defendants will fairly and adequately protect
the interests of the class. Certification of a class of district attorneys represented by
Defendant Ozanne is therefore warranted.
17.
Defendants Carolyn H. Bronston, Mary Jo Capodice, Rodney A. Erickson,
Jude Genereaux, Suresh K. Misra, Gene Musser, Sandra L. Osborn, Kenneth B. Simons,
Timothy Swan, Sridhar Vasudevan, and Sheldon A. Wasserman are all members of the
Medical Examining Board of Wisconsin. The Medical Examining Board has the
authority to impose disciplinary sanctions, up to and including medical license
revocation, on Wisconsin physicians for unprofessional conduct, which is defined to
include violations of state law. See Wis. Stat. § 448.02(3), Wis. Admin. Code § MED
10.02(2)(z). The above-listed defendants are sued in their official capacities as members
of the Medical Examining Board.
III.
FACTUAL ALLEGATIONS
Case: 3:12-cv-00913-bbc Document #: 1 Filed: 12/11/12 Page 7 of 24
8
18.
Legal abortion is one of the safest procedures in the contemporary practice
of medicine. When conducted early in the pregnancy, abortion is significantly safer
than any other pregnancy outcome, including carrying a pregnancy to term. Although
abortion is a very safe procedure, the risks of the procedure to the patient’s health and
life increase with the duration of the pregnancy. Delays in performing an abortion may
increase the risks to the patient’s health and life.
19.
First trimester abortions, whether conducted by medication or surgically,
have been demonstrated to be extremely safe procedures.
20.
Women choose to terminate a pregnancy for a variety of reasons,
including medical, emotional, economic, psychological, and familial reasons.
21.
Until the Act became effective, the three PPW clinics performed both
surgical and medication-induced abortions.
22.
The method used at the three PPW clinics for a first trimester surgical
abortion is vacuum aspiration. The physician inserts a speculum into the patient’s
vagina and injects a local anesthetic to the perimeter of the cervix. After administering
the anesthetic, the physician dilates the woman’s cervix to gain access to the uterus,
inserts an aspirator into the uterus, and evacuates the contents of the uterus. The
procedure generally is completed within a few minutes.
23.
A medication abortion is a nonsurgical method of terminating a
pregnancy using medications alone. PPW followed an evidence-based medical
protocol in providing medication abortions, i.e., a protocol whose safety and efficacy
was scientifically demonstrated through medical studies. The medical protocol
Case: 3:12-cv-00913-bbc Document #: 1 Filed: 12/11/12 Page 8 of 24
9
followed by PPW is the most commonly used evidence-based protocol in the United
States. The medical protocol requires the use of two separate medications, mifepristone
(distributed under the brand name Mifeprex, also known as RU-486) and misoprostol.
Mifeprex is an anti-progesterone that blocks the production of progesterone, a hormone
necessary for maintaining the pregnancy. Misoprostol is a prostaglandin, which causes
the uterus to contract and evacuate its contents.
24.
The three PPW clinics provided medication abortions to patients no later
than 63 days after the patient’s last menstrual period (approximately 7 weeks after the
probable time of fertilization1), falling well within the first trimester of pregnancy
(generally regarded as the first 12 to 13 weeks after the last menstrual period (LMP)).
25.
Before Act 217 became effective on April 20, 2012, the three PPW clinics
observed the following evidence-based medical protocol when providing patients with
medication to terminate a pregnancy:
a.
At the patient’s first appointment at a PPW clinic, the patient was
counseled about surgical and medication abortion procedures; given statutorily
mandated information; signed the informed consent form; and underwent an
ultrasound examination to determine the probable gestational age of the
pregnancy. An appointment for the abortion was scheduled at least 24 hours
later, in accordance with Wis. Stat. § 253.10(3)(c)1 (2009-2010), and more typically
three to four days later.
1The Wisconsin Statutes measure gestational age as “the number of weeks that have elapsed from the
probable time of fertilization of the ovum.”
Case: 3:12-cv-00913-bbc Document #: 1 Filed: 12/11/12 Page 9 of 24
10
b.
At the second clinic appointment, the patient was counseled again
about the medication abortion procedure. A physician prescribed the two
medications, Mifeprex and misoprostol, to the patient. Both medications were
dispensed to the patient at the clinic. The patient took the Mifeprex orally while
at the clinic and was directed to take the misoprostol buccally (dissolved
between the cheek and gum) 24 hours later. The patient was also given
prescriptions for antibiotics and pain medication, was provided with an
emergency phone number, and was counseled on potential side effects and
adverse reactions.
c.
A post-procedure appointment was set up for one to two weeks
later to confirm that the patient was no longer pregnant. Patients for whom
returning to the PPW clinic would impose a hardship, due to distance or other
factors, were advised that they could have a follow-up appointment at a local
PPW family planning clinic.
26.
The above-described regimen, including the self-administration of
misoprostol, is followed nationally at all Planned Parenthood health centers that
provide medication abortions and by most other providers of medication abortions
nationally. It has been demonstrated to be safe and effective in medical research studies
and has been given the highest level of recommendation by the American College of
Obstetricians and Gynecologists.
27.
Before Act 217 took effect, patients at the three PPW clinics who sought to
terminate a pregnancy and who were eligible for either a surgical procedure or
Case: 3:12-cv-00913-bbc Document #: 1 Filed: 12/11/12 Page 10 of 24
11
medication (i.e., patients within 63 days of LMP) were generally offered the choice of
either procedure.
28.
In 2011, approximately forty-five (45) percent of PPW patients who were
eligible for either a surgical or medication abortion at the time of their initial
appointment at a PPW clinic (i.e., patients within 63 days of the LMP) chose to
terminate their pregnancies with medication instead of the surgical procedure.
29.
According to the Reported Induced Abortions in Wisconsin in 2011, an
annual report published in accordance with Wis. Stat. § 69.186, 7,019 women received
induced abortions in Wisconsin in 2011. Of that total, 3,847 abortions occurred during
the first 8 weeks after gestation, which is approximately the period during which a
woman is eligible for a medication abortion.2 There were 1,675 medication abortions
(referred to as “chemically induced abortions” in the report). Thus, in 2011, according
to the report, the abortion was chemically induced in approximately 45% of abortions
occurring early enough in the pregnancy to permit the use of that method. Abortions
were chemically induced in 24% of all abortions conducted in Wisconsin in 2011.
30.
Patients choose a medication abortion over the surgical procedure for
many different reasons. The patient may want to terminate the pregnancy at home or
another private location of her choice, where she may have a greater sense of safety,
privacy, comfort, and control over her surroundings, instead of undergoing a surgical
procedure in a clinical setting. A patient may want to avoid the physical intrusion
2 The report notes that the data provided for what is termed “weeks of gestation” in the tables cannot be
classified precisely or consistently, because in some cases, it refers to the patient’s reported weeks since
last menstrual period and in other cases, it is the physician’s estimate of weeks since conception. See
Reported Induced Abortions in Wisconsin 2011, p. 8 (Notes).
Case: 3:12-cv-00913-bbc Document #: 1 Filed: 12/11/12 Page 11 of 24
12
inherent in the surgical procedure, may have a fear of surgery, or may prefer
medication over a surgical procedure. A patient who has been the victim of a sexual
assault may have heightened sensitivity to the physical intrusion of the surgical
procedure. Cultural and religious beliefs and practices may have a bearing on the
patient’s choice to terminate her pregnancy with medication over the surgical
procedure.
31.
Considerations related to the patient’s physical condition may also be
relevant in choosing to terminate a pregnancy with medication or a surgical procedure.
A medication abortion may be recommended for patients with conditions such as
uterine fibroids, uterine scarring, and cervical stenosis, which may make surgical access
to and within the uterus difficult.
32.
PPW contracts with approximately ten physicians who provide services
part-time at its three clinics. All of the physicians who contract with PPW have other
medical practices or positions and are not available for full-time clinical work at PPW
clinics.
33.
None of the three clinics are staffed by a physician forty hours per week or
during all clinic open hours. The Jackson Street Clinic in Milwaukee has physicians
scheduled for approximately thirty-two hours per week; at the Madison clinic,
physicians are scheduled for about twenty hours per week; and at the Appleton clinic,
physicians are scheduled for twelve to sixteen hours per week. During one full week
each month at the Appleton clinic, no physician is scheduled. At each clinic, physician
time is divided between patient counseling and medical or surgical procedures.
Case: 3:12-cv-00913-bbc Document #: 1 Filed: 12/11/12 Page 12 of 24
13
34.
Some of PPW’s contracted physicians who prescribe abortion-inducing
medications and perform other services at PPW clinics, including examinations of
patients and counseling, are not trained in and do not perform surgical abortions.
35.
While PPW consistently and reliably maintains sufficient physician
staffing from a medical standpoint to deliver abortion services and other reproductive
health services at its clinics, and can ensure that a qualified physician is present when
abortion-inducing medications are prescribed and dispensed to a patient, PPW cannot
ensure that the same physician who provides a patient with a physical examination
before the patient receives the mandatory information under Wis. Stat. §253.10(3) will in
every case be physically present when the patient returns to the clinic and is given the
abortion-inducing medications.
36.
PPW’s three clinics serve patients from all parts of the state of Wisconsin,
as well as many patients from neighboring states. Approximately 25% of PPW patients
travel 33 or more miles one way to receive abortion services at a PPW clinic, and over
10% travel over 65 miles.
37.
As of April 20, 2012, the date Act 217 took effect, the Plaintiffs stopped
providing medication abortion services at the three PPW clinics in Wisconsin, due to
concern that the provisions exposed the Plaintiffs and their medical providers to
criminal penalties, professional disciplinary sanctions, and civil liability if they
continued to provide such services under the established, evidence-based medical
protocols.

IV.
FACTUAL AND LEGAL ALLEGATIONS REGARDING THE STATUTORY
CHANGES ENACTED BY 2011 WISCONSIN ACT 217
38.
Before the enactment of Act 217, the statutes did not impose any special or
unique requirements solely applicable to medication abortions. The requirements for
providing a patient with medication to induce abortion were identical to the provisions
for providing a patient with a surgical abortion.
39.
Before the enactment of Act 217, the Wisconsin Statutes mandated an
informed consent procedure and twenty-four hour waiting period before a patient
could be deemed to have given informed and voluntary consent to an abortion. See
Wis. Stat. § 253.10(3) (2009-2010). The statutes required that at least 24 hours before the
abortion is performed or induced, “the physician who is to perform or induce the
abortion or any other qualified physician” must orally inform the woman of specified
information, including information about the abortion procedure, the gestational age,
medical risks associated with the pregnancy and the abortion procedure, and other
information. Wis. Stat. § 253.10(3)(c)1.a. – L (2009-2010).
40.
The statutes further required that, at least 24 hours before the abortion,
“the physician performing or inducing the abortion, a qualified person assisting the
physician, or another qualified physician” must orally inform the patient of other
information, including certain benefits and services that may be available to women
and their children, among other things; and must provide the patient with printed
information about public and private agencies that provide such services and
Case: 3:12-cv-00913-bbc Document #: 1 Filed: 12/11/12 Page 14 of 24
15
information about fetal development during pregnancy. Wis. Stat. § 252.10(3)(c)2.a. – g.
(2009-2010).
41.
The law required the informed consent procedure to be documented and
acknowledged on a prescribed form signed by the patient. Wis. Stat. § 252.10(3)(c)5
(2009-2010).
42.
Act 217 added to the informed consent procedure a requirement that “the
physician who is to perform or induce the abortion shall determine whether the
woman’s consent is, in fact, voluntary. . . . by speaking to the woman in person, out of
the presence of anyone other than a person working for or with the physician.” Wis.
Stat. § 253.10(3)(b) (as amended).
43.
Wis. Stat. § 253.10(3)(g) provides that satisfying the mandated informed
consent procedures required under Wis. Stat. § 253.10(3)(c) creates a rebuttable
presumption that a woman’s consent is informed, but that there is no presumption that
consent to an abortion is voluntary.
44.
A person who violates the voluntary and informed consent procedures
required by Wis. Stat. § 253.10(3), which include the requirement that the physician
determine that the patient’s consent is “in fact, voluntary,” is subject to a civil penalty of
not less than $1,000 nor more than $10,000. Wis. Stat. § 253.10(5).
45.
In addition, a person who violates Wis. Stat. § 253.10(3) is civilly liable to
the woman on whom the abortion was performed for damages arising out of the
performance or inducement of the abortion, including damages for personal injury and
emotional and psychological distress; not less than $1,000 nor more than $10,000 in
Case: 3:12-cv-00913-bbc Document #: 1 Filed: 12/11/12 Page 15 of 24
16
punitive damages for a violation that satisfies the standard for punitive damages under
Wis. Stat. § 895.043 (3), and the plaintiff’s reasonable attorney fees. Wis. Stat.
§ 253.10(6).
46.
There is no scienter element for a physician to be found in violation of
Wis. Stat. § 253.10(3), including the requirement that the physician determine that the
patient’s consent is “in fact, voluntary.” Nor does the statute establish an objective
standard for determining if a physician has violated the statute. The statute thus
appears to impose strict civil liability and civil forfeiture penalties on a physician who
fails to correctly ascertain another person’s subjective state of mind, regardless of the
physician’s good-faith attempt to ascertain that the patient’s consent was in fact
voluntary.
47.
The statutory requirement that a physician determine that a patient’s
consent is “in fact, voluntary,” imposes a purely subjective and unattainable standard
that flies in the face of the longstanding objective standard for informed consent,
applied in virtually all other areas of medical practice, that allows physicians to perform
their all-important work without fearing unfair and unpredictable civil liability, civil
penalties, and professional discipline.
48.
Due to the absence of an objective standard or a scienter requirement in
order for civil liability or penalties to be imposed under Wis. Stat. § 253.10(5), the
requirement in Wis. Stat. § 253.10(3)(b) that the physician determine that the patient’s
consent is “in fact, voluntary” fails to clearly define what conduct is prohibited or how a
Case: 3:12-cv-00913-bbc Document #: 1 Filed: 12/11/12 Page 16 of 24
17
physician may avoid civil liability and civil penalties when providing abortion services
to a patient.
49.
Act 217 created a new statutory section that imposes requirements that
solely apply to medication abortions. See Wis. Stat. § 253.105. This section requires that:
No person may give an abortion-inducing drug to a woman unless the
physician who prescribed, or otherwise provided, the abortion-inducing
drug for the woman:
(a) Performs a physical exam of the woman before the information is
provided under s. 253.10(3)(c)1.
(b) Is physically present in the room when the drug is given to the
woman.
Wis. Stat. § 253.105(2).
50.
“Abortion-inducing drug” is defined as “a drug, medicine, oral hormonal
compound, mixture, or preparation, when it is prescribed to terminate the pregnancy of
a woman known to be pregnant.” Wis. Stat. § 253.10(2)(am).
51.
The Wisconsin Statutes appear to require that the same physician who
prescribes abortion-inducing medications to a patient must perform a physical
examination of the patient before she is provided with the mandated information at
least 24 hours before the abortion is induced. The apparent requirement that the
prescribing physician conduct the physical examination at the patient’s first
appointment conflicts with Wis. Stat. §§ 253.10(3)(c)(1)b & 253.10(2)(e). These statutes
provide that the physician who is to perform or induce the abortion or any other
qualified physician orally inform the woman of, among other things, the probable
gestational age of the unborn child, based on the information provided by the woman
as to the time of her last menstrual period, her medical history, a physical examination
Case: 3:12-cv-00913-bbc Document #: 1 Filed: 12/11/12 Page 17 of 24
18
performed by the physician who is to perform or induce the abortion or by any other
qualified physician and any appropriate laboratory tests performed on her. Wis. Stat. §§
253.10(2)(e).
52.
The Wisconsin Statutes does not define the word “given” as it is used in
the phrase “when the drug is given to the woman” in Wis. Stat. § 253.105(2).
53.
Wis. Stat. § 253.105(2) does not account for the fact that the medication
abortion procedure requires the woman to take two different drugs with at least a
twenty-four hour interval between them.
54.
The requirement in Wis. Stat. § 253.105(2) that the physician who
prescribes or provides a drug to induce abortion be “physically present in the room
when the drug is given to the woman” is ambiguous and unclear in light of the two-
drug regimen entailed by a medication abortion.
55.
“Give” is a word with a range of meanings. “Give” can mean “to put into
the possession of another for his or her use” or “to convey to another.” In the context
of medications, “give” also can mean “to administer as a medicine.” Merriam-
Webster’s Dictionary (10th ed. 1993).
56.
Under PPW’s established, evidence-based procedure for medication
abortions, the physician is physically present in the room when the two medications are
given to the patient, i.e., when the drugs are dispensed to the patient, but is not
physically present when the patient takes the misoprostol 24 hours later.
57.
The statute fails to clearly define whether PPW’s evidence-based medical
protocol for dispensing Mifeprex and misoprostol to patients to terminate their
Case: 3:12-cv-00913-bbc Document #: 1 Filed: 12/11/12 Page 18 of 24
19
pregnancies exposes PPW physicians to criminal and civil liability under Wis. Stat.
§ 253.105(3).
58.
If “given” means “administered,” then a physician who provides the
medications to the patient under the PPW evidence-based medical protocol is in
violation of Wis. Stat. § 253.105(2) when the patient takes the misoprostol at home,
outside of the physician’s presence, 24 hours after taking the Mifeprex.
59.
The statute also is ambiguous as to whether misoprostol, when prescribed
in combination with Mifeprex, is an “abortion-inducing drug” as defined in Wis. Stat.
§253.10(2)(am).
60.
As amended by Act 217, the statute requires the physician performing or
inducing the abortion or another qualified physician to inform the patient that “if the
abortion is induced by an abortion-inducing drug, that the woman must return to the
abortion facility for a follow-up visit 12 to 18 days after the use of an abortion-inducing
drug to confirm the termination of the pregnancy and evaluate the woman’s medical
condition.” Wis. Stat. § 253.10(3)(c)1.hm.
61.
Assuming that Wis. Stat. 253.105(2) requires separate clinic visits for each
of the two drugs prescribed for a medication abortion, a woman seeking to terminate
her pregnancy by medication is statutorily required to attend four separate
appointments at the PPW clinic within specific intervals.
62.
Any person who violates the requirements for medication abortions
imposed by Wis. Stat. § 253.105(2) is subject to the criminal penalties for a Class I
felony, except that no penalty can be assessed against a woman to whom the abortion-
Case: 3:12-cv-00913-bbc Document #: 1 Filed: 12/11/12 Page 19 of 24
20
inducing drug is given. Wis. Stat. § 253.105(3). The penalties for a Class I felony are a
fine not to exceed $10,000 or imprisonment not to exceed 3 years and 6 months, or both.
Wis. Stat. § 939.50(3)(i). The statute does not require proof of recklessness or intentional
violation for criminal penalties to apply.
63.
Wis. Stat. § 253.105(4) also grants a woman to whom an abortion-inducing
drug was given and certain other persons a civil cause of action against any person who
intentionally or recklessly violates § 253.105(2). Available relief includes damages
arising out of the inducement of the abortion, including damages for personal injury
and emotional and psychological distress; punitive damages for a violation that satisfies
the standard under s. 895.043 (3), and reasonable attorney fees. Wis. Stat. § 253.105(4)(b),
(c).
64.
Requiring the patient to return to the PPW clinic to take the misoprostol in
the presence of the physician who prescribed and provided the medication is not
medically necessary and does not promote the health of the woman. Self-
administration of misoprostol has been demonstrated to be safe and it has received the
recommendation of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.
Moreover, it may be medically inadvisable for a woman to travel to the clinic to take the
misoprostol. The products of conception are expelled within four hours of
administration of the misoprostol for about 50% of women. Vaginal bleeding, uterine
cramping, nausea, diarrhea, fatigue and other symptoms may begin within an hour of
administering the misoprostol. Moreover, women are instructed to closely monitor
their bleeding, body temperature, and pain after the administration of misoprostol,
Case: 3:12-cv-00913-bbc Document #: 1 Filed: 12/11/12 Page 20 of 24
21
which may be more difficult and uncomfortable if they are traveling in a car or on
public transportation. Women likewise may not have as ready access to pain
medication and other palliative care for these symptoms while they are traveling. Some
patients may have to spend the night away from home, incurring additional cost,
discomfort, and loss of privacy.
65.
Many women seeking to terminate an unwanted pregnancy do not detect
their pregnancies until several weeks after the LMP, and thus have their first
appointment at a PPW clinic close to, or after, the expiration of the period during which
an abortion may be medically induced, i.e., within 63 days LMP.
66.
Because many women seeking an abortion are, at the time of their first
appointment at a PPW clinic, nearing the end of the time period during which a
medication abortion may be provided, time is of the essence in scheduling a second
appointment for the procedure.
67.
Before Act 217 took effect, PPW clinics were generally able to schedule
women for a second appointment to receive the abortion medications, generally with a
different physician, within three to four days after the original appointment at which
the patient was examined, received statutorily mandated information, and signed
consent forms.
68.
PPW cannot guarantee that the same physician will be physically present
for three successive appointments within the short intervals and timeframe necessitated
by the statute and the medical protocol for medication abortions. Even if the patient’s
subsequent appointments can initially be scheduled with the same physician,
Case: 3:12-cv-00913-bbc Document #: 1 Filed: 12/11/12 Page 21 of 24
22
emergencies or scheduling changes prompted by either the patient or the contracted
physician may make it impossible to carry out the medication abortion in strict
compliance with the statute.
69.
To avoid exposing its staff and contracted physicians to criminal liability
under the statute, the PPW clinics have been forced to cease offering medication
abortions to patients.
70.
As a result, PPW patients within 63 days of their LMP who choose to
terminate their pregnancies may no longer may terminate the pregnancy with
medication at home or another private location of their choosing, but must undergo a
surgical procedure at the clinic.
71.
PPW clinics must schedule more physician time per patient for a surgical
abortion than was required for a medication abortion (as the procedure was conducted
before the enactment of Act 217). Thus, since Act 217 was enacted and PPW began
exclusively providing surgical abortions, many patients experience delays of up to 10
days after their original appointment before they can be scheduled for a second
appointment for the surgical abortion procedure. Before Act 217 was enacted, the
second appointment typically could be scheduled three to four days after the original
appointment for either surgical or medication abortions. Thus, the law is having the
effect of delaying abortions for many women.
V.
FIRST CLAIM FOR RELIEF: THE STATUTORY REQUIREMENT THAT THE
PHYSICIAN BE PHYSICALLY PRESENT WHEN A WOMAN IS “GIVEN”
AN ABORTION-INDUCING DRUG IS UNCONSTITUTIONALLY VAGUE
AND VIOLATES DUE PROCESS
Case: 3:12-cv-00913-bbc Document #: 1 Filed: 12/11/12 Page 22 of 24
23
72.
The Plaintiffs hereby re-allege and incorporate by reference paragraphs 1
through 72 above.
73.
The requirement in Wis. Stat. § 253.105(2)(b) that the physician who
prescribed, or otherwise provided, the abortion-inducing drug must be “physically
present in the room when the drug is given to the woman” fails to clearly define what
conduct is prohibited and subject to criminal penalties, including imprisonment. It is
therefore unconstitutionally vague and violates due process in violation of the
Plaintiff’s rights under the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
VII. SECOND CLAIM FOR RELIEF: REQUIREMENT THAT PHYSICIAN
DETERMINE THAT PATIENT’S CONSENT IS ACTUALLY VOLUNTARY IS
UNCONSTITUTIONALLY VAGUE AND IN VIOLATION OF DUE
PROCESS
74.
The Plaintiffs hereby re-allege and incorporate by reference paragraphs 1
through 72 above.
75.
The provisions of Wis. Stat. § 253.10(5) & (6) that subject a physician to
strict civil liability and civil penalties for violating the requirement in Wis. Stat. §
253.10(3)(b) that the physician who is to perform or induce the abortion “shall
determine whether the woman’s consent is, in fact, voluntary” are unconstitutionally
vague and violate due process in violation of the Plaintiffs’ rights under the Fourteenth
Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
REQUESTED RELIEF
WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs request that this Court:
Case: 3:12-cv-00913-bbc Document #: 1 Filed: 12/11/12 Page 23 of 24
24
1.
Issue a declaratory judgment pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 2201 & 2202 and 42
U.S.C. § 1983 that Wis. Stat. §§ 253.10(3)(b), 253.10(5), 253.10(6), and 253.105(1)-(4)
violate the constitutional rights of the Plaintiffs as protected by the Due Process clause
of the Fourteenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution;
2.
Issue injunctive relief, without bond, restraining defendants from
enforcing the requirements of Wis. Stat. §§ 253.10(3)(b), 253.10(5) & (6), and 253.105(1)-
(4);
3.
Grant Plaintiff’s attorney’s fees, costs and expenses pursuant to 42 U.S.C. §
1988; and
4.
Grant such other and further relief as this Court deems just and proper.
Respectfully submitted this 11th day of December, 2012.
