Rowan County, KY Clerk appears in U.S. District Court
Rowan County, Ky. Clerk Kim Davis is scheduled to appear before U.S. District Judge David Bunning in federal court at 11 a.m. in Ashland, Ky. for a contempt of court hearing. Despite orders from as high as the U.S. Supreme Court, Davis has refused to issue same-sex licenses based on her religious beliefs. The elected official faces jail and fines for her refusal to perform her sworn duties.
