PTL network files suit in Mecklenburg County to halt state demands for financial statements arguing the new law violates First Amendment rights. A temporary restraining order lifts the license requirement and blocks enforcement while the constitutional challenge proceeds. PTL averages 1.5 million dollars monthly in donations to run its 25 acre Charlotte complex.
