The judge also awarded $1,001 in penalties and costs to the state.Stutzman had asked for direct review by the state Supreme Court. She’s said the civil cases could end costing her the business, her life savings and retirement funds, and her family home.Hundreds of people packed the Bellevue College theater on Nov. 15 when attorneys argued before the state Supreme Court.Seattle lawyer Michael Scott lauded the court’s “one voice” decision Thursday, saying it took great courage for clients Ingersoll and Freed to stand up for the rights of all LGBT people.Scott — who represents the couple on behalf of the American Civil Liberties Union — said their case is not only about principles, but about human beings and the moments in their lives that are most important to them.The decision “upholds a core value of American law. That core value is the essential human dignity of every person,” Scott said in a news conference. “The opinion affirms over a century, an unbroken century of precedent, prohibiting discrimination in places of public accommodation.”Laws against discrimination protect everyone in this diverse society, including Ingersoll and Freed, based on their sexual orientation, and Stutzman, based on her religion, Scott added.“These laws ensure that all of us can participate equally and with dignity in commerce and our civil society,” he said.Ferguson added that it’s a “complete, unequivocal victory for equality.”Related stories from Tri-City HeraldArlene’s Flowers is not required to sell wedding...
