Magistrate says Forsyth prayer policy unconstitutional



FOX8 News: “A federal magistrate has recommended that prayers referencing Jesus and other sectarian deities made before meetings of the Forsyth County Commissioners are unconstitutional . . . The county was represented by the Alliance Defense Fund, which defended the county at no charge . . . The Alliance Defense Fund said it will press on, but also said it will not pay for legal fees should the county ultimately lose. Plyler says a loss would, right now, cost the county upwards of $100,000.”

The order in Joyner v. Forsyth Co., North Carolina is available here.
