University of Michigan finds no abortion records to hand over in battle over ban:
http://famulus.msnbc.com/famulusgen/ap03-25-123618.asp?t=apnew&vts=32520041438< DETROIT, March 25 — The University of Michigan Health System, ordered by a federal judge to turn over records in a legal fight over the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act, said Thursday none of its records fall under the court mandate.>
< The university initially objected to producing the records because of privacy concerns, but in a compromise brokered by the judge, it agreed to have Johnson review the records to see if any pertained to the Justice Department's queries about various types of late-term abortions.
''He has now done a diligent search and has determined that he neither performed nor supervised any of the type of cases the government asked about,'' the university said in a statement.
The government has also sought records from other health care providers around the country. In two cases, judges have blocked the requests. >
