Idaho Falls Pocatello, ID, October 26, 2026 —
An Ada County judge will privately review data spreadsheets from a Boise State University study of OB-GYNs before ruling on a lawsuit over public records, according to the information provided.
The Idaho Family Policy Center, or IFPC, is suing the university, alleging it withheld records related to the study. The study found that OB-GYNs left Idaho after the state’s abortion ban took effect.
Boise State provided one spreadsheet. IFPC argues that the spreadsheet is insufficient, and the judge is set to review data spreadsheets privately before issuing a ruling. The information provided does not specify how many spreadsheets are under review or what data they contain.
The dispute centers on access to records connected to the study. The available information does not detail which specific records IFPC requested, when the request was made, or the university’s explanation for providing only one spreadsheet. It also does not identify the judge or provide a date for the review or ruling.
The lawsuit remains unresolved in the information provided. No ruling, court order, or further action is described. The judge’s private review is the next stated step in the case before a decision on the public records lawsuit.
The information provided does not include statements from Boise State, IFPC, or the judge beyond the description of the dispute and planned review. It also does not state whether the requested records include material beyond the study’s data spreadsheets.
