TL;DR Summary

A Colorado web designer, Lorie Smith, who won a Supreme Court ruling allowing her to refuse making wedding websites for gay couples, cited a request from a man named "Stewart" as part of her case. However, Stewart denies ever submitting the request and was surprised to find his name invoked in the lawsuit. Smith's lawyer suggested it could have been a troll, but the validity of the request remains in question. The revelation detracts from Smith's victory, which is seen as a setback for gay rights. The Colorado Attorney General called the lawsuit a "made up case" since Smith wasn't offering wedding website services when the suit was filed.
