Planned Parenthood Sues to Open Abortion Clinic in Oakland County

After deceptively using their attorneys to trick local business owners about who planned to move into the neighborhood, Planned Parenthood faces a deed restriction which states the building they want to turn into an abortion clinic can only be used for restaurants, retail stores or offices. In response Planned Parenthood has now filed a lawsuit in Oakland County to challenge the deed restrictions and claims their planned abortion clinic qualifies as a medical office.

Planned Parenthood of Mid-and South Michigan filed a lawsuit in Oakland County, Michigan to challenge the deed restriction that has thus far thwarted the abortion provider's plans to open a 17,000 square-foot clinic in Auburn Hills.

This covenant deed restriction was initiated over ten years ago when a parcel of land was sold to a hotel in close proximity to the building purchased by Planned Parenthood at 1625 N. Opdyke Road. Last April 2010, Lori Lamerand, CEO for PPMSM told Detroit News columnist Laura Berman, that her group sought to open a clinic in Oakland County that would "likely offer abortion services."
