The former clerk in Rowan County made headlines in 2015 when she stopped issuing marriage licenses to gay couples due to her religious objections against gay relationships The devout Christian was sued for her unconstitutional refusal to issue the licenses and was jailed for contempt when she defied orders to resume them She argued that as a government employee, a legal doctrine called qualified immunity protected her from being sued for damages by couples David Ermold and David Moore as well as James Yates and William Smith Jr But it was unanimously rejected by the supreme court and now the greenlight is set to move forward with the lawsuit The prolonged legal battle involving Davis came in the wake of the 2015 landmark decision in Obergefell v Hodges which granted the right for gay couples to marry The couples said the issue was far less ambiguous whether government officials have immunity when they act in a way that they know is a breach of the law Although conservative justices, Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito Jr said they agreed with the court's decision to not take on her case, they renewed criticism of the decision saying it bypassed the democratic process and left people with religious objections to same sex marriage "in the lurch" Thomas said Davis may have been the first victims of this cavalier treatment of religion and won't be the last and said it be one thing if the recognition for same sex marriage had been adopted through the democratic process with people deciding to not provide statutory protections for religious liberty but it is another when the court forces that choice Davis switched from Democrat to Republican and ran for relection in 2018 bu lost to Democrat Elwood Caudill Jr by over 600 votes who ironically was one fo the gay men who ran against her and refused to issue a license Davis had a huge party of supporters outside when she was released from jail and said God was on her side as now she faces a civil lawsuit from the couples Do you think government christians should be allowed to deny marriage licenses to anybody they don't approve of?
