The ACLU of Kentucky filed suit yesterday in federal district court on behalf of a Russell County High School senior who objects to plans for a clergyman to offer a prayer at his school's graduation this Friday. The Lexington Herald-Leader reports that the suit asks for a preliminary injunction, arguing that U.S. Supreme Court precedent bar clergy-led prayer at commencement ceremonies.
UPDATE: On Friday, U.S. District Judge Joseph McKinley granted a temporary restraining order in the case. (Louisville Courier-Journal).
