Court Stays Injunction Pending Appeal of Religious Displays In Postal Outlet

A Connecticut federal district court earlier this year issued an injunction requiring a contract postal unit to remove religious displays, prayer cards, advertisements, donation solicitations, and telecommunication videos that proselytize on behalf of the Full Gospel Interdenominational Church. (See prior postings 1, 2). Now in Cooper v. United States Postal Service, 2007 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 80877 (D CT, Nov. 1, 2007) the court has issued a stay of the injunction while defendant's appeal of the case is pending.
