Mormon Newsroom: Judge Describes UK Court Case as "Abuse of Legal System"
LONDON —
Today, the Lord has shown His Hand, and caused this judge to "see things as they really are" and in so doing, in my opinion, sends a message to all those who would rally against the work of the Lord, wherever they may be found.
LONDON —
A District judge in Westminster Magistrates Court in the United Kingdom today dismissed a private prosecution brought against The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for alleged fraud and described it as "an abuse of the process of the court."
In throwing out the case brought by a former Church member, Judge Howard Riddle said: "I am satisfied that the process of the court is being manipulated to provide a high-profile forum to attack the religious beliefs of others."
Judge Riddle said no secular court in England would allow religious teachings to be put to a jury.
Honestly, I wish they would have fined those who brought this to court. It's a waste of the court's time.
ReplyDeleteThat's because in england, the court and the government is the church.
ReplyDeleteI guarantee that if this lawsuit was brought in the US, it would be allowed to go forward--as it should.
