			The Satanic Temple, Inc., sued the state of Indiana, challenging its abortion ban. In the complaint by attorney [[W. James MacNaughton]], TST claimed they had standing because one of their existing Indiana members — which they defined as someone who signed up for their email newsletter at some point — might want to make money as a surrogate, and being involuntarily pregnant would deny them the ability to make money off of their own bodies, which is a form of slavery.

			However, TST did not bother to find any actual, specific pregnant TST member who was involuntarily pregnant and suffered direct harm, was not willing to use the legal name of its owners and leaders in court, and was not willing to use the legal name of a doctor who wrote in support in them, either. In addition, the Temple did not show that it planned to open an abortion telehealth clinic in the state of Indiana in the immediate future.

			On Oct. 25, 2023, federal district court judge and Obama-appointee Jane Magnus-Stinson dismissed the case without leave to amend for lack of standing.
