Alabama Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore was temporarily suspended Friday following a complaint against his defense of Alabama ’s marriage laws from the state’s Judicial Inquiry Commission (JIC). Moore now faces charges in the Alabama Court of the Judiciary , which could remove him from the Court if they find he’s violated the Alabama Judicial Canons of Ethics or engaged in misconduct.  The charges focus on Moore’s January 2016 Administrative Order, in which he wrote that state probate judges should “not…issue any marriage license contrary to the Alabama Sanctity of Marriage Amendment or the Alabama Marriage Protection Act.”  Moore instructed judges to not act contrary to state laws defining marriage as the union of one man and one woman until the Supreme Court rules on the effects of its landmark same-sex “marriage” ruling   Obergefell v.
