The U.S. 6th Circuit Court of Appeals on Feb. 27
granted en banc review in
Bormuth v. County of Jackson. In the case, a 3-judge panel in a 2-1 decision held that the manner in which the Jackson County, Michigan Board of Commissioners opens its meetings with prayer violates the Establishment Clause.
AP reports on the grant of review by the full court which has the effect of vacating the panel decision while review is pending.
