Here's what happened in Georgia recently:

An anonymous Barrow County resident sued the county in September of 2003 to remove the display, which hung in the breezeway of the county courthouse. Ten Commandments - Georgia pledged to pay for the fight, and has already paid the county $213,436.14. The group must still raise $52,000.

The county settled the suit in July and paid the ACLU and the anonymous resident $150,001 in taxpayer dollars last month. Ten Commandments - Georgia refused to give any money for the settlement.

Note: $150,000 went to the ACLU, and the resident got $1.

No wonder the ACLU always seems to be able to find a "concerned citizen" to complain about religious displays or prayers at school events--they offer to split the loot with them.

And the "criminal" document (paper framed 10-Commandements) is now up for auction on ebay to help recover costs.
