Morr-Fitz, Inc. v. Quinn

The Illinois Court of Appeals has affirmed the lower court's invalidation of the state's administrative rule requiring pharmacies to dispense emergency contraception.  The basis of the ruling is the Illinois Health Care Right of Conscience Act, not RFRA or the First Amendment.  Two issues on which the ruling turned: first, the Conscience Act applies to pharmacists; and second, the provision of emergency contraceptives does not qualify as "emergency medical care" under the Conscience Act because "unprotected sex does not place a woman in imminent danger requiring an urgent response."
