Judge rules for religious freedom over Obamacare.

Freedom of religion, the judge wrote, is a fundamental right, "a liberty of conscience."

The case is the first of its kind in Florida - or any of the three states covered by the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals - involving a profit-making entity, according to the ACLU Deputy Legal Director Louise Melling, who said she expects the government will appeal.


The ACLU filed a brief supporting the government, while Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi's office and a consortium of religious groups filed briefs in support of Beckwith.
