(2,357 posts)Appeals court rules in Kim Davis case aimed at overturning same-sex marriage (Fri, March 7, 2025)
A legal appeal filed by controversial former Rowan County Clerk Kim Davis that aimed to eventually overturn the landmark Obergefell v. Hodges Supreme Court decision was denied this week.
Davis gained fame and notoriety in 2015 by refusing to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, citing her Christian faith and First Amendment rights.
A ruling this week by three Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals judges noted Davis previously had claims of qualified immunity denied in two separate court decisions, and her actions as a public official in denying those licenses were not protected by the First Amendment.
