COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The Latest on Ohio Supreme Court rulings on abortion clinics (all times local):

3:10 p.m.

An attorney says it's disappointing that a state Supreme Court decision found that a northeast Ohio abortion clinic lacks legal standing to sue over some restrictions.

Attorney Jessie Hill said Tuesday that the decision makes it a "sad day for government transparency and accountability" and that women across Ohio will suffer. The court found Preterm of Cleveland lacks legal standing to sue over abortion-related restrictions that Hill says were put into the state's 2013 budget bill without public comment.

Hill says the case involved a state constitutional question and can't be appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court.
