KINGSTON — Last week, Texas tried for the second time to force New York to recognize a ruling against a Hudson Valley doctor who allegedly prescribed abortion pills to a woman in Texas. And for the second time, the Ulster County clerk charged with filing the document has refused to do so, citing New York’s telehealth abortion shield law.

A New York county clerk has again refused to file a more than $100,000 civil judgment from Texas against a doctor accused of prescribing abortion pills.
