An Order of Dismissal was entered last week in Freedom From Religion Foundation v. Mercer County Board of Education, (SD WV, May 16, 2022). According to Christian Post, in January 2019 the school board ended the Bible In The Schools program that was being challenged in the lawsuit. According to an FFRF press release:
The Mercer County Board of Education, through its insurance coverage, agreed to pay $225,000 to cover the costs and attorneys fees of the plaintiffs. Those payments will reimburse two private law firms and FFRF for hundreds of hours of time spent by attorneys litigating the case.
