Liberty Counsel filed a motion to intervene on behalf of Christian Educators Association International (CEAI) in a lawsuit filed earlier this year by the ACLU against the Santa Rosa County School District. The ACLU filed suit, claiming some of the teachers and administration endorsed religion.

The School District attempted to settle the suit by joining with the ACLU and presenting the court with a Consent Order, which essentially bans all employees from engaging in prayer or religious activities, whether before, during, or after school hours.

Without any legal argument or briefing, the judge signed the order, but the order is so broad that it unconstitutionally infringes on the rights of teachers and administrators. The order also forces CEAI members to infringe upon the rights of students and other third parties.

Liberty Counsel is seeking to intervene on behalf of CEAI and will argue that the Consent Order is too broad and thus unconstitutional.
