The judge that ordered Kim Davis to be placed behind bars nearly one week ago has now ordered her release, but simultaneously demanded that she not stop any of her deputy clerks from issuing marriage licenses to homosexuals.
U.S. District Judge David Bunning’s order came just hours before a rally was set to begin outside of Carter County Detention Center, where Davis had been held for the past six days.
He said that he was satisfied with the Rowan County office’s compliance with the Supreme Court opinion in Obergefell v. Hodges, and issued his order shortly after Davis’ attorneys filed an emergency motion to stay the contempt order.
