State of North Dakota v. Family Life Services, Inc., et al. (Opinion)

admin Constitutional Law, North Dakota Supreme Court

Today, the Supreme Court of North Dakota unanimously reversed a Cass County District Court order that would have dismantled and reconstituted the board of directors of Family Life Services, a Christian pro-life ministry in the Fargo-Morehead community. North Dakota’s high court ruled that the lower court’s order turning Family Life Services over to persons whose religious views met with the approval of the trial judge violated Family Life Services’ First Amendment rights of freedom of religion.
