So Roy Moore has issued an order telling state probate judges not to issue licenses. Now I guess the question is whether the state judges follow his orders or the federal court’s orders. And if they follow the federal court order whether the state disciplines them.

The law is clear as can be. Regardless of whether or not the federal judge is right on the underlying ruling, there's no way a State Supreme Court judge can overturn a federal judge. If Alabama tries to nullify the ruling, they will lose -- if necessary with federal marshals or a federalized National Guard.
