Court Rejects Challenge To "In God We Trust" License Plates

By Howard Friedman

ADVERTISEMENTS
A Marion, Indiana state court judge last week dismissed a lawsuit filed by the ACLU seeking to require the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles to treat the "In God We Trust" license plates it issues as "special group recognition" plates that carry an additional $15 administrative fee. UPI reports on the decision by Marion Superior Court Judge Gary Miller who ruled that the 1.6 million plates carrying the motto were made with the same process used to mass-produce the standard Indiana license plates. Therefore no special handling fees needed to be charged. The lawsuit had argued that waiver of the fee amounts to promotion of the religious-themed plate by the state. (See prior related posting.)
