Summum's Challenge To Duchesne City Dismissed After Case Was Mooted

By Howard M. Friedman

ADVERTISEMENTS
Last March, after the U.S. Supreme Court decided in Pleasant Grove City v. Summum that a Utah city need not accept a "Seven Aphorisms" monument for a local park where a 10 Commandments monument already stood, it remanded to the lower courts a more complicated companion case, Summum v. Duchesne City. (See prior posting.) The city responded by moving the 10 Commandments monument to a city cemetery, which Summum saw as essentially mooting the case. (See prior posting.)
