Cert Denied In Other 10 Commandments Cases

The McCreary County case which the Supreme Court decided on Monday involved the posting of the Ten Commandments in two court houses. When the 6th Circuit below decided the cases, they had been consolidated with a third case, Harlan County v. ACLU of Kentucky, which involved posting of a similar display in a school. The Lexington Herald-Leader reports that yesterday the Supreme Court denied certiorari in the Harlan County case, as well as in three Ohio cases involving Ten Commandments postings in schools and a court house.
