The Supreme Court has rejected an appeal that was thought to be the only case that had standing to challenge the landmark 2015 ruling in Obergefell v. Hodges that legalized so-called same-sex marriage.
On Monday, Supreme Court justices denied a petition for a writ of certiorari for the case Kim Davis v. David Ermold, et al., according to court documents .
'If ever a case deserved review, the first individual who was thrown in jail post- Obergefell for seeking accommodation for her religious beliefs should be it.'
There were no notable dissents in the order, and no justices recused themselves.
