The Supreme Court dismissed a case challenging the approval of the widely used abortion drug mifepristone last week .
The ruling preserved medication abortion access for millions of Americans .
Experts say the ruling was a narrow legal technicality that didn’t go into the case’s actual merits.
It's quite possible the Court could make future rulings that restrict access to medication abortion.
Louisiana recently passed a law that puts mifepristone and another drug commonly used in medication abortions in the same category as “controlled dangerous substances” People in possession of these drugs could be fined thousands of dollars and face jail time.
A 19th-century law called the Comstock Act prohibits the distribution of “obscene” materials in the mail, including those related to abortion.
