Matt Staver, Davis’ lawyer, spoke a few minutes ago. As I understood him, he said that all she wanted was her name off of the certificates. He said those altered or incomplete licenses now being issued are invalid according to Kentucky law that prohibits their authorization by ineligible parties.
Then he went into a lecture about the Kentucky Law not having been changed, so that there is no operating law in Kentucky on this aspect of marriage.
IOW, you and he were on the same page. I wish I had a tape of it, but I don’t.
Maybe he read some of my posts. :-)
FWIW, I think the reason he didn't take that track in the first place it's that Kim Davis only had standing to assert the constitutional violation to her own religious liberty. She did not have standing to challenge the validity of the current law in Kentucky.
She was jailed because she refused to obey an executive order from the governor, who is a pig. Beshear ordered all clerks to abide by Justice Kennedy's opinion. He had no authority to issue that order without first getting the legislature to meet and pass New laws and regulations.
