Prosecutor presses to enforce fines against Amish
  • EXAmishEXAmish June 2011
    AP: MAYFIELD, KY - A Kentucky prosecutor says there should be no more
    delays in enforcing traffic fines against nine Amish men cited for not
    displaying slow-moving-vehicle symbols on their buggies.

     

    The
    Kentucky Court of Appeals denied a petition from the men. In the
    unanimous decision, Senior Judge Ann O'Malley Shake wrote that the men's
    religious rights could not infringe on the rights and safety of the
    public. The case was sent back to a Graves County Court.



    Prosecutor Scott Robbins told The Paducah Sun that he expects
    to ask at an August 25 hearing that the citations be enforced. If the
    men continue to refuse payment, they could be jailed.



    Their attorney says the Amish men are considering a possible appeal to the Kentucky Supreme Court.
