The Supreme Court on Friday paused a rapidly developing legal battle over the abortion pill mifepristone, temporarily suspending a lower court's ruling that imposed limits on access to the drug so that justices have more time to review the case.

The order from Justice Samuel Alito does not signal which way the court is leaning but it does temporarily delay restrictions that abortion rights advocates warned could significantly limit availability of the drug. President Joe Biden hours earlier asked the high court to intervene to block a lower court's decision upholding those restrictions.
