Kim Davis accused of invalidating marriage licenses for same-sex couples


The county clerk who threatened to challenge Kim Davis's stance against participating in licensing homosexual "marriage" has accused her of invalidating her office's marriage license forms in violation of a court order.

Rowan County Deputy Clerk Brian Mason's lawyer told a federal judge Friday that Davis is trying to sidestep the court's order that she not interfere with the issuing of marriage licenses to same-sex couples by amending the forms and apparently making them invalid.

"Mr. Mason's concern is he does not want to be the party that is issuing invalid marriage licenses and he is trying to follow the court's mandate as well as his superior ordering him to issue only these changed forms," Richard Hughes said in a CNN report.

It is the latest turn in a contentious case hinging on the Supreme Court's June 29 imposition of homosexual "marriage" on all 50 states, and the religious freedom battle brought to the forefront as a result.

Kim Davis returned to her job as clerk of Rowan County, KY September 14 after being arrested on September 3 for "contempt of court" and jailed for declining to issue marriage licenses.

Davis, who opposes homosexual "marriage" based on her religious beliefs, wasreleased from jail September 8 and ordered not to interfere with the issuing of marriage licenses in her office.
