Friday, the state's lawsuit against the owner of Arlene's Flowers had its first hearing in front of a judge.
At the Benton County Justice Center, lawyers for the Attorney General's Office and the defendant brought forward their initial claims in a pre-trial hearing. It's setting up a judicial process that will determine whether the actions of one flower shop owner could be deemed as discrimination.
"Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual." Thomas Jefferson
"If people can’t trust not only the executive branch but also don’t trust Congress, and don’t trust federal judges, to make sure that we’re abiding by the Constitution with due process and rule of law, then we’re going to have some problems here." - Barack Obama, June 7, 2013
