CV NEWS FEED // The Colorado Supreme Court has dismissed a lawsuit filed against a Christian baker who refused to make a pro-transgender cake, on the grounds that the plaintiff did not follow the proper filing process.
This is the third such legal case in the past 12 years related to Jack Phillips, owner of Masterpiece Cakeshop, and his right to free speech.
“Enough is enough. Jack has been dragged through courts for over a decade. It’s time to leave him alone,” stated Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) Senior Counsel Jake Warner in an October 8 press release after the decision. “Free speech is for everyone.”
ADF attorneys have been representing Phillips since the first lawsuit was filed against him in 2012. Phillips refused to create a custom cake in celebration of a same-sex wedding on the grounds that such an action violated his Christian beliefs. The Colorado Civil Rights Commission filed a lawsuit against Phillips in response. That case escalated to the US Supreme Court, which sided with Phillips in 2018.
