The six-year-long legal battle over an Indiana law dealing with fetal remains finally appears to be at an end.

Indiana Attorney General Curtis Hill recommended no criminal charges or licensing actions Wednesday after concluding an investigation into more than 2,000 sets of fetal remains found last year at the suburban Chicago garage of a late abortion doctor.

The measure builds on a 2016 law upheld last year by the U.S. Supreme Court that requires medical facilities to bury or cremate fetal remains, not dispose of them as medical waste.

The Senate easily sent legislation to the House that builds on a 2016 anti-abortion law dealing with fetal remains.

Indiana law -- upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court -- says medical facilities must bury or cremate fetal remains. This year's bill clarifies the policies those clinics and hospitals must develop to do so.

A federal appeals court once again struck down part of an Indiana anti-abortion law. The 2016 law barred women from seeking abortions solely because of a fetus's sex, race, or potential disability.

The new ruling deals an Indiana University lawsuit on aborted fetal tissue used for research.

The federal judge indicated a ruling will come before the law takes effect July 1.
