Too bad Hobby Lobby didn't have this attorney and judge.
From the Detroit Free Press:
Tom Monaghan won a court order that temporarily allows him to avoid Affordable Care Act-mandated contraceptive coverage for employees at his Ann Arbor Domino's Farms property management company.
A federal court judge granted a temporary restraining order Sunday, citing a First Amendment right to freedom of religion, until a final decision is made.
Monaghan is best known as the founder of Domino's Pizza, which he sold in 1998, and the owner of the Detroit Tigers from 1983-92.
A devout Catholic who also founded Ave Maria University in Florida, Monaghan argued in a lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan on Dec. 14 that being forced to cover his Domino's Farms staffers' contraceptives, like the Plan B and other morning-after pills, ran contrary to the tenets of his faith. "Gravely immoral practices" is how they're described in the original lawsuit.
"I'm elated," said his attorney, Erin Mersino. "This is really what (my client) sought at this point. We're happy that as of tomorrow, religious freedom won't be violated."
U.S. District Judge Lawrence Zatkoff wrote in his opinion that he was issuing the temporary restraining order because the case wouldn't be resolved before today, when the Domino's Farms health care plan year begins. http://www.freep.com/article/20130101/BUSINESS06/301010017/Monaghan-gets-court-order-against-contraceptive-coverage?odyssey=tab|topnews|text|FRONTPAGE
This is a common sense issue but liberal policy makers and liberal judges still want to deny people their basic right to express their religious beliefs through their insurance policies.
