Public Accommodation Law Does Not Apply To Photographer Without Business Store Front
Earlier this year a Madison, Wisconsin creative photographer, Amy Lynn, filed suit in Wisconsin state court challenging local and state public accommodation provisions that impeded her ability to rely on her Christian religious beliefs in her client selection. (See prior posting.) Now, according to an ADF press release, at an August 1 hearing the court announced that it will issue an order declaring that the local and state public accommodation laws do not apply to individuals like Lynn who do not have a physical store front as part of their business. The court said that the city and state agree that the public accommodation laws do not apply in such cases.
