Missouri Judge Grants Planned Parenthood’s Request to Seal Alleged Health Violations


Missouri Judge Grants Planned Parenthood’s Request to Seal Alleged Health Violations
A St. Louis judge has granted Planned Parenthood’s request to seal a list of health violations alleged by the state of Missouri and has denied the state’s request that he reconsider his order requiring the health department to make a formal decision on whether to renew the facility’s license.

Circuit Court Judge Michael Stelzer granted the request by Reproductive Health Services (RHS) of Planned Parenthood to seal a “statement of deficiencies” filed by Missouri’s Department of Health and Senior Services (DHSS).
