In March, the Court had found that the young women of Elgin were likely to suffer irreparable harm if Elgin's zoning restrictions were applied to deny them access to the free services and support TLC's mobile ultrasound facility provides. The City then filed a motion to dismiss the case, but the City's motion was denied in its entirety in today's order.

"TLC is delighted to share this victory with the young women in the Elgin community," said TLC's Executive Director Vivian Maly.

The opinion went on: "[I]t must be recognized that the City is preventing Life Center from being able to effectively provide pregnant women in the City with needed medical care that could identify issues and save lives of unborn children. Life Center has in fact provided evidence that it has helped a multitude of young women who have used the services at the Mobile Facility."

Since the Court's order in March, The Life Center's mobile pregnancy services have operated at the usual locations at the Evangelical Covenant Church of Elgin on Fridays from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. and JB's Pub & Bar on Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons. Now that Elgin's ordinance is found to be unconstitutional, the TLC may expand its mobile pregnancy services to other locations.

TLC's attorney John W. Mauck noted that Judge Der-Yeghiayan's order underscores the paramount interest women have to be fully informed in the context of their pregnancies. "On the heels of the Illinois Supreme Court's unanimous decision in the Hope Clinic case just a few weeks ago affirming the Illinois Parental Notice Act, the law appears to be clarifying that the welfare of young pregnant women and their rights to be fully informed in their pregnancy decisions prevails," said attorney John Mauck.
