Court Revinds Mercer County Bible in the Schools ruling
The Fourth Circuit reversed a district court decision and remanded a case brought by FFRF against Mercer County Schools over the Bible in the Schools program. The appellate court said an injunction may be sought to end the classes, and noted the district had erred in mootness and timing while keeping the core concern of state endorsement of religion.
