So Kim Davis has to the end of the day to start issuing licenses. Her only hope is that the Supreme Court issues a stay, otherwise contempt of court charges

Prayer vigil this morning outside her office

BAM

Kim Davis is being sued by the gay couple she denied license for 3 times even after the courts told her to

http://www.wkyt.com/home/headlines/Gay-couple-denied-marriage-license-three-times-sues-Rowan-County-Clerk-Kim-Davis-323488531

quote:

The lawsuit was filed Aug. 25 in U.S. District Court by William Smith Jr. and James Yates, but a summons was delivered Monday to Rowan County Judge Executive Walter Blevins, who is named as a defendant with Davis and the county. Other defendants, including Davis, were expected to be served this week, attorneys have told WKYT. The lawsuit says Davis and Rowan County “willfully, intentionally, and with deliberate indifference” to the couple’s rights established a custom or policy to “refuse to issue marriage licenses to individuals eligible to marry in order to deny such individuals, including Smith and Yates, their Constitutional right to marry.” Smith and Yates suffered and “continue to suffer irreparable damage, including but not limited to embarrassment, humiliation, loss of family security and benefits accessible by other married couples,” according to the lawsuit. Smith and Yates are seeking a jury trial, a “reasonable amount” for compensatory and punitive damages and attorney fees. Davis has refused to issue marriage licenses, citing her Christian faith and constitutional right to religious liberty, despite a U.S. Supreme Court ruling on June 26 that legalized same-sex marriage in all 50 states. She is being sued by the ACLU because her office stopped issuing marriage licenses.

Now that the day is over and Kim did not issue licenses, she is opening herself up to contempt of court and official misconduct

oe Davis arrived at the Rowan County courthouse Tuesday morning to check on his wife, clerk Kim Davis, shortly after she again denied the licenses to several couples.

Joe Davis says his wife has received death threats, and the couple changed their phone number. But he says he's not afraid and believes in the Second Amendment.

He said: "I'm an old redneck hillbilly, that's all I've got to say. Don't come knocking on my door."

Brian Brown of NOM is whoring this situation out

quote:

“Kim Davis wasn’t going to lie, or violate her faith. She would not allow her name to be used to spread a falsehood — attesting that two men are married to each other, or two women either. If refusing to issue same-sex ‘marriage’ licenses while issuing heterosexual licenses was not permitted, then her solution was to not issue any marriage licenses, period. Kim Davis is why we fight. Please stand with us to fight by making an immediate contribution of $25, $50, $100 or $250 or more. You see, there is no reason that Kim should be in the position she’s in. It’s pure politics, and it’s ugly, pure and simple. Why must gay activists use their power to try to punish, repress, and attack those who can never accept to a false definition of marriage? The answer is because they think they are that powerful — that the entire nation must bow to their new orthodoxy or suffer the consequences. Well, NOM will never bow to a lie, nor will we salute what is evil. Please help us fight back against this push to force every American to embrace the lie that is same-sex ‘marriage’. Your contribution of $25, $50, $100 or $250 or more will allow us to fight until the sham, outrageous ruling of the US Supreme Court is reversed. And with your support, we will work night and day to protect the rights of marriage supporters to be free of the kind of discrimination that Kim now faces.” Brian Brown,

The email featured 17 seperate links to their donation page

Also, I don't think she will resign. People like Brian/Matt "she is rosa parks" Barber/Tony Perkins and Matt Staver are kissing the ground she walks on. She will see resigning as giving up on God and the fight for natural marriage.

Liberty Council has responded to the fact she has been married four time

quote:

The leader of the organization providing her legal representation, Mat Staver of Liberty Counsel, says he’s not sure precisely how many husbands Davis has had, but that it’s not relevant. “I know she was married more than once – I’ve heard three [times],” he says. “It’s a matter of fact that she’s been married multiple times.” Staver says “it’s not really relevant, it’s something that happened in her past” and that her conversion to Christianity about four years ago wiped her slate clean. “It’s something that’s not relevant to the issue at hand,” he says. “She was 180 degrees changed.” In a Tuesday statement released by Liberty Counsel, Davis admitted she had lived an imperfect life, but insisted her current beliefs are sincere.

“What would be think today of a clerk in her position and this is a clerk that controls entrance in and out of the town of Auschwitz?,” Fischer asked. “There’s this box car that pulls up and she knows that there are Jews in the box car that are headed to the gas chambers and yet she has to sign a certificate allowing this train to proceed through Auschwitz to get to the other side of town. Now, the law says you have got to do it … What would we think of her if she said, ‘No, I’m not going to sign that certificate’? I think we would regard her today as a hero for honoring her conscience when it came to an important issue.”

quote:

Attorneys that represented the lesbian couple that successfully sued to overturn Alabama’s same-sex marriage ban are asking the state to reimburse them for nearly $200,000 in legal fees and costs. David Kennedy and Christine Hernandez filed a motion on Monday in U.S. District Court in Mobile seeking $99,175 and $98,535. Kennedy told AL.com that it would be up to U.S. District Judge Ginny Granade to approve the payout. “There’s precedent all over the country for it,” Kennedy said. “Near about any time someone makes a constitutional challenge in terms of challenging whether the law itself is constitutional or not, the federal law allows for recovery of attorney fees if you’re successful.” Two months ago, the landmark case came to its end as a retired Baldwin County Circuit Court Judge James Reid granted the adoption for Cari Searcy in Mobile County Probate Court of her wife’s biological son, Khaya Searcy. His approval of the measure ended a winding and politically fraught legal battle for Searcy and her wife Kim McKeand. Kennedy and Hernandez represented the couple in court. They are asking for reimbursement of attorney fees at a cost of $275 per hour from April 2014 to July 2015.

http://www.theamericanconservative.com/dreher/kim-davis-political-prisoner-martyr/

quote:

You know what this thing reminds me of? The way Michael Brown, the “gentle giant” shot to death in Ferguson became a martyr for the cultural left and the #BlackLivesMatter movement. When a Justice Department investigation found that the officer who killed him had acted prudently, and that Brown was actually a thug, none of that mattered. Brown may have been, in the end, an unsympathetic figure, hardly a martyr to police brutality and racism, but his existence was too convenient to a huge number of angry people who had broader grievances — some legitimate, some not — and needed a totem to rally around.

Kim Davis is the Michael Brown of the Religious Right. Don’t underestimate the political potency of that. You watch, this is not going to end well for religious liberty in America.

A jailed Kentucky clerk asserted that marriage licenses issued without her authority Friday to gay couples in Rowan County are void and “not worth the paper they are written on” because she didn’t authorize them, her attorney said. Kim Davis now wears an orange jumpsuit and “has already been doing Bible studies with herself” in jail, her attorney Mat Staver of Liberty Counsel told reporters after meeting with her behind bars. He said Davis is in very good spirits, and is prepared to stay as long as it takes to uphold her religious freedoms. “She’s not going to resign, she’s not going to sacrifice her conscience, so she’s doing what Martin Luther King Jr. wrote about in his Letter from the Birmingham Jail, which is to pay the consequences for her decision,” Staver said. Meanwhile, Staver said he’s preparing to appeal U.S. District Judge David Bunning’s contempt finding as one of several legal challenges on her behalf.

Just a little background on her lawyer Matt Staver

He heads up Liberty Counsel which is an arm of Liberty university. They sponsored a Christian movie called Uncommon.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QbzBljiNuQA



quote:


Uncommon – Jesus combined diverse people and assorted stories to change the world! Now, He wants to use you!

When the students of Rosewood High School lose their theater, music and dance departments due to budgets cuts, they create their own. Struggling to
find the right script, music & choreography the students get advice from an uncommon source; the Bible!

Each student becomes uniquely influenced as they discover that God takes them personally. Equipped with unique talents, they bond together to prepare the perfect production by exploring the diversity of parables taught in the Bible. Fighting overwhelming challenges, the teens fight against political correctness to defend their privilege to worship, meet and perform.

Will months of constant bullying by the establishment defeat the production and dismantle their faith? Armed with expert lega l counsel and unexpected help from Christian music’s finest, these teens realize what it means to be...UNCOMMON!

Not content with just sponsoring the movie, Matt Staver also stars in it as the lawyer who wins the legal battle against the atheist

quote:

The attorneys for same-sex couples who successfully challenged Texas’ gay marriage ban in federal court are seeking nearly three-quarters of a million dollars in fees and costs from the state. In a 27-page motion filed Friday, attorneys from Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld in San Antonio asked U.S. District Judge Orlando L. Garcia to award them $720,794 in fees and $20,203 in costs. Akin Gump represented two same-sex couples in De Leon v. Perry, which was filed in October 2013 and resolved pursuant to the U.S. Supreme Court’s June 26 ruling in favor of same-sex marriage. Under federal law, prevailing parties in civil rights cases are typically eligible for fees and costs.
