It was because Kim Davis refused to obey the order from the governor, that the case moved into the Federal District Court. The Federal District Court quoted the executive order from the governor in his decision to hold the defendant in contempt.

I understand what you are saying, I think, but I am procedurally challenged. Are you saying the case was originally a State case and was removed to Federal Court? Or was this an action that was filed by the Anti Christian Liberties Union directly in Federal Court?

Ditto to your statement:

"Had the governor done his constitutional duty and told the Supreme Court where they could stick their opinion, this would not have worked out the way that it did. I blame governor Beshear because in his rush to be politically correct, he completely ignored the statutory obligations of the clerks and the statutory law in Kentucky."

Cordially,

To be honest, I don’t know how this got to Federal Court. I haven’t researched it and I don’t know how it could have gotten there basically overnight. The Federal Court has no jurisdiction in State matters except on Appeal from the State Supreme court and the Federal district court has no appellate jurisdiction.

But when dealing with the Gaystapo and the Anti-Christ Liberation Union, they always get their way and a little thing like Federal Procedure or jurisdiction is no impediment where the Prince of the Power of the air is running the show.
