A federal appeals court has overturned a ruling against Planned Parenthood by the divisive Texas judge known for his anti-abortion and anti-LGBT rulings.

A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit ruled Wednesday in the case of Doe v. Planned Parenthood Federation of America that an anti-abortion group cannot bring a claim based on the actions of Planned Parenthood’s attorneys.
