Last year, government lawyers, at the direction of Merrick Garland, filed a civil lawsuit under the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act (FACE) against several pro-lifers arising out of two peaceful rescues held at abortion centers in northern Ohio in June 2021.
Garland waited nearly 3
years to file the lawsuit, and he did so last year (2024) because it was an
election year in which he and the Biden/Harris administration wanted to make
abortion a principal issue in the election.
One of the main targets
of this DOJ attack was Fr. Fidelis (Christopher Moscinski), a Catholic priest
from New York who is a spiritual leader amongst pro-lifers as a result of his
deep faith and courage. We defended Fr. Fidelis in this civil lawsuit.
In response to the DOJ
lawsuit, we went on the offensive and filed counter-claims on behalf of Fr.
Fidelis against the government and third-party claims against Garland for
targeting and selectively enforcing the law against pro-lifers.
As noted, Trump made
good on his promise, and he directed his DOJ to dismiss this bogus lawsuit
against Fr. Fidelis and the other pro-life defendants. The dismissal was
made official by the court on February 7, 2024.
