Section 26-23F-3 Definitions. For the purpose of this chapter, the following words and phrases
shall have the following meanings: (1) ABORTION. The use or prescription of any instrument,
medicine, drug, or any other substance or device with the intent to terminate the pregnancy
of a woman known to be pregnant with knowledge that the termination by those means will with
reasonable likelihood cause the death of the unborn child. Such use or prescription is not
an abortion if done with the intent to save the life or preserve the health of an unborn
child, remove a dead unborn child, or to deliver the unborn child prematurely in order to
preserve the health of both the mother (pregnant woman) and her unborn child. The term "abortion"
as used in this chapter, does not include a procedure or act to terminate the pregnancy of
a woman with an ectopic pregnancy, nor does it include the procedure or act to terminate the
pregnancy of a woman when the unborn child has a lethal anomaly. (2) BODILY...
