It was our hope that the Supreme Court would take the opportunity [to] correct the lower courts on this point of law, but for whatever reason, it chose not to do so." ]]> http://www.alliancealert.org/2011/10/07/supreme-court-still-fuzzy-on-10-commandments/feed/ 0 http://www.alliancealert.org/2011/10/03/court-turns-away-appeal-from-ten-commandments-judge/ http://www.alliancealert.org/2011/10/03/court-turns-away-appeal-from-ten-commandments-judge/#comments Mon, 03 Oct 2011 13:24:15 +0000 ADF Alliance Alert http://www.alliancealert.org/?p=115217 The Washington Post: The Supreme Court has turned away another appeal from an Ohio judge who wanted to display a poster containing the Ten Commandments in his courtroom. ]]> http://www.alliancealert.org/2011/10/03/court-turns-away-appeal-from-ten-commandments-judge/feed/ 0 http://www.alliancealert.org/2011/08/15/two-groups-battle-over-commandments-case/ http://www.alliancealert.org/2011/08/15/two-groups-battle-over-commandments-case/#comments Mon, 15 Aug 2011 13:51:55 +0000 ADF Alliance Alert http://www.alliancealert.org/?p=110788 OneNewsNow.com: The American Center for Law & Justice (ACLJ) is asking the U.S. Supreme Court to hear an Ohio Ten Commandments case that deals with an issue that one attorney says is "constitutionally permissible." ]]> http://www.alliancealert.org/2011/08/15/two-groups-battle-over-commandments-case/feed/ 0 http://www.alliancealert.org/2011/08/08/ohio-ten-commandments-case-goes-to-supreme-court/ http://www.alliancealert.org/2011/08/08/ohio-ten-commandments-case-goes-to-supreme-court/#comments Mon, 08 Aug 2011 13:58:47 +0000 ADF Alliance Alert http://www.alliancealert.org/?p=110207 The New American: For over 10 years Ohio judge James DeWeese (left) has fought for his constitutionally guaranteed right to display the Ten Commandments in his courtroom. And during that entire time he has been thwarted by a series of federal court rulings fueled by manipulative arguments of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). Now, with the help of the conservative American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ), Judge DeWeese will try to take his case to the U.S. Supreme Court. ]]> http://www.alliancealert.org/2011/08/08/ohio-ten-commandments-case-goes-to-supreme-court/feed/ 0 http://www.alliancealert.org/2011/08/02/aclj-aclu-has-no-legal-standing-in-10-commandments-case-high-court-should-hear-case/ http://www.alliancealert.org/2011/08/02/aclj-aclu-has-no-legal-standing-in-10-commandments-case-high-court-should-hear-case/#comments Tue, 02 Aug 2011 15:33:12 +0000 ADF Alliance Alert http://www.alliancealert.org/?p=109744 ACLJ: We filed our Petition for Writ of Certiorari at the high Court a couple of months ago. Now, we have filed a reply brief arguing that the ACLU has no legal standing to bring a challenge against an Ohio courtroom display containing the Ten Commandments. An appeals court declared unconstitutional a poster displayed by Judge James DeWeese that included the Ten Commandments as part of an exhibit on legal philosophy. ]]> http://www.alliancealert.org/2011/08/02/aclj-aclu-has-no-legal-standing-in-10-commandments-case-high-court-should-hear-case/feed/ 0 http://www.alliancealert.org/2011/02/02/6th-circuit-courtroom-ten-commandments-held-unconstitutional/ http://www.alliancealert.org/2011/02/02/6th-circuit-courtroom-ten-commandments-held-unconstitutional/#comments Wed, 02 Feb 2011 22:30:00 +0000 ADF Alliance Alert http://www.alliancealert.org/?p=94448 ]]> http://www.alliancealert.org/2011/02/02/6th-circuit-courtroom-ten-commandments-held-unconstitutional/feed/ 0 http://www.alliancealert.org/2010/01/28/philosophy-poster-containing-ten-commandments-gets-judge-back-in-spotlight/ http://www.alliancealert.org/2010/01/28/philosophy-poster-containing-ten-commandments-gets-judge-back-in-spotlight/#comments Thu, 28 Jan 2010 16:06:18 +0000 ADF Alliance Alert http://www.alliancealert.org/wordpress/?p=50052 Columbus Dispatch: "A second constitutional challenge to an Ohio judge's display of the Ten Commandments in his courtroom is making its way through the court system.
