The ruling comes after the Center for Medical Progress began releasing undercover videos which showed Planned Parenthood abortionists describing how they harvest and sell body parts.

District Judge William H. Orrick III in San Francisco issued the restraining order out of concern for the safety of National Abortion Federation leaders.
