KRS 213.101, 311.595, 311.781 to 311.786, 311.990, and 413.140 shall not be

construed to repeal, by implication or otherwise, any law regulating or restricting

311.990, and 413.140 but violates any otherwise applicable provision of state law

with the provisions of state law regulating or restricting abortion but violates the

provisions of KRS 213.101, 311.595, 311.781 to 311.786, 311.990, and 413.140

shall be deemed unlawful as provided in those sections. If some or all of the

provisions of KRS 213.101, 311.595, 311.781 to 311.786, 311.990, and 413.140 are

temporarily or permanently restrained or enjoined by judicial order, all other

provisions of state law regulating or restricting abortion shall be enforced as though

such restrained or enjoined provisions had not been adopted. But, whenever such

temporary or permanent restraining order or injunction is stayed or dissolved, or

otherwise ceases to have effect, such provisions shall have full force and effect.
