County Wants Return of Settlement From Church of Universal Love and Music

By Howard M. Friedman

ADVERTISEMENTS

After last week's drug raid at the Church of Universal Love and Music (see prior posting), Fayette County, Pennsylvania has now filed a motion in federal court seeking to recover from the Church the $75,000 the county paid in a settlement of a RLUIPA zoning lawsuit against it. The motion also seeks to enjoin the Church's holding any more concerts. According to yesterday's Pittsburgh Post Gazette , the county argues that the settlement agreement was violated when the church permitted drug use at the concert it sponsored. In the case the Church claimed denial of a zoning permit amounted to religious discrimination.
