The U.S. Supreme Court rejected the appeal of Kim Davis, a former clerk from Kentucky, who refused to issue marriage certificates for same-sex couples, ordering her to pay damages of $360,000.

The Supreme Court of the United States has decided not to review the appeal filed by Kim Davis, the former clerk from Kentucky, who, in 2015, refused to issue marriage certificates for same-sex couples, citing religious reasons. As a result of this decision, Davis faces the obligation to pay damages and court costs amounting to $360,000. The Court did not provide explanations for rejecting the appeal, a common practice in such cases. This ruling has been observed with interest, considering that the court, with a conservative majority of 6 to 3, overturned the precedent set by Roe v. Wade in 2022, which guaranteed the right to abortion.
