COLUMBUS, Ohio, Feb. 3 (UPI) -- A U.S. appeals court has upheld a lower court ruling that an Ohio judge's display of the Ten Commandments in his courtroom was unconstitutional.
The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that when Richland County Common Pleas Judge James DeWeese put up a poster in his Mansfield courtroom he violated the First Amendment, the Columbus (Ohio) Dispatch reported Thursday.
