"Kim Davis Ordered to Pay Over $250K for Same-Sex Marriage License Case Legal Fees"

Kim Davis, the former Kentucky county clerk who refused to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, has been ordered by a federal judge to pay $260,104 in legal fees. This ruling follows a jury's decision that awarded $100,000 in damages to the couples who sued her. The plaintiffs, David Ermold and David Moore, each received $50,000 in damages and the judge affirmed that Davis is responsible for their legal costs as well. Davis's attorneys plan to appeal the ruling. The case has been ongoing since 2015, after the Supreme Court's decision to legalize same-sex marriage nationwide.
