Overview

Repeals criminal statute prohibiting abortion-related conduct that is not necessary to save the life of the mother.

History

Under A.R.S. § 13-3603, it is a criminal offense punishable by 2-5 years in prison for a person to provide, supply or administer to a pregnant woman, or procure the woman to take any medicine, drugs or substance, or use or employ any instrument or other means whatever, with the intent to procure the miscarriage of the woman, unless it is necessary to save the woman's life.

Formerly codified at A.R.S. § 13-211, this statute was renumbered as A.R.S. § 13-3603 in 1977 (Laws 1977, Ch. 142, § 99).
