His now ex-girlfriend got a medicated abortion against his wishes at the clinic in February 2017 when she was six weeks pregnant, according to legal papers filed in the case, Fox News reported.
The case, involving a girl who reports say was 16 when she became pregnant to Magers, then aged 19 and unemployed, has alarmed pro-choice campaigners.
The case is set to become a flash-point in the controversial abortion issue that continues to dominate political debate in the United States.
