There is a city in Kentucky. Attorneys for a former Kentucky clerk who wouldn't issue marriage licenses to two same-sex couples have appealed a federal court ruling that she violated the couples' constitutional rights. Kim Davis went to jail in 2015 for refusing to issue marriage licenses to same sex couples because she believed that marriage should only be between a man and a woman. A jury trial will be needed to figure out what the couples are owed. A date was not set during the hearing. The trial for David Ermold and David Moore is expected to be held next year, according to Michael Gartland. Gartland said that he would be seeking sanctions for filing a frivolous appeal. Mat Staver, founder and chairman of Liberty Counsel, the law firm that represents Davis, said in a statement that she is entitled to an accommodation based on her sincerely held religious beliefs. He said the case will go to the Circuit Court of Appeals and that it has a high chance of reaching the Supreme Court. In his ruling last month, the US District Judge in Ashland wrote that Davis cannot use her own constitutional rights as a shield to violate the constitutional rights of others while performing her duties as an elected official. The Supreme Court's decision to allow same-sex couples to marry nationwide prompted Davis to stop issuing marriage licenses. A judge ordered Davis to issue the licenses, but she was sued by gay and straight couples and spent five days in jail for her refusal. Her name was removed from the form after her staff issued the licenses for her. The names of all county clerks were removed from state marriage licenses. Davis lost her reelection bid. The county's clerk is a Democrat. Davis had argued that she was protected from being sued for damages by couples Ermold and Moore as well as James Yates and Will Smith because of a legal doctrine called qualified immunity. In October 2020 the Supreme Court declined to take the case, leaving in place a decision that allowed the lawsuit to move forward.
