U.S. District Judge Myron H. Thompson

 Yellowhammer Fund v. Alabama Attorney General Marshall

Case 2:23-cv-00450-MHT-KFP Middle District, Alabama

Myron H. Thompson, D.J. 

Previously, this court wrote in denying a motion to dismiss: “At its core, this case is simply about whether a State may prevent people within its borders from going to another State, and from assisting others in going to another State, to engage in lawful conduct there.” Yellowhammer Fund v. Att’y Gen. of Ala. Steve Marshall, 733 F. Supp. 3d 1167, 1174 (M.D. Ala. 2024) (Thompson, J.). The court now answers no, a State cannot.
