Snce anti-abortion activists based their lawusit on a scientific paper that has now been retracted, will federal judges still take the lawsuit seriously?

They *shouldn't*, but there's a lot of things that happen in court that *shouldn't*.

Important context for non-scientists:

It is actually *really difficult to get a scientific paper retracted.*

e.g., new evidence indicating scientific misconduct, profound misportrayal of methods/results, or deeply flawed methodology.

Don't treat this lightly.
