Judge Issues Injunction on Texas District's Ban of Bible Verses for Cheerleaders
The cheerleaders will be able to use banners with Bible verses until the trial in June
Kountze High School cheerleaders can display Bible verses on football game banners, a Texas judge ruled, blocking a school district ban with an injunction.
The Thursday order, entered by Hardin County District Judge Steve Thomas, revives the biblical banners pending the resolution of a complaint against the Kountze Independent School District. Trial is set for June 24, 2013.
