Kim Davis, ex-Kentucky county clerk, appeals $360,000 verdict for refusing same-sex marriage licenses; appeal may reach U.S. Supreme Court.
Former Kentucky county clerk, Kim Davis, is appealing a verdict that found her liable for refusing to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, ordering her to pay over $360,000 to plaintiffs and attorneys. Liberty Counsel, her legal representatives, claim the judgment in Ermold v. Davis was not supported by evidence, but a federal judge disagreed. The appeal could potentially lead to the U.S. Supreme Court revisiting the right of same-sex couples to marry.
