POWAY, Calif. (AP) — A public interest law center says it will request a full appellate court review of a ruling prohibiting the display of banners referring to God in a San Diego County classroom.
The Thomas More Law Center, based in Ann Arbor, Mich., announced Monday that it will ask a full bench of 11 judges on the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to review a three-judge panel’s decision.
That ruling reversed a trial court decision upholding math teacher Bradley Johnson’s First Amendment right to hang the banners.
