An Oregon judge has decided that Sweet Cakes by Melissa pastry shop in Portland will be compelled to pay a $135,000 fine to refuse to prepare a cake for a lesbian wedding, said KOIN Channel 6 on Thursday.
Aaron and Melissa Klein shut their pastry shop and requested the fine — which they paid in 2015 yet which has been held by the Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries from that point forward.
Be that as it may, a board of three judges — Joel DeVore, Chris Garrett and Bronson James — decided for offended parties Laurel and Rachel Bowman-Pryor, whose 2013 wedding the Kleins declined to prepare a cake for, starting a national contention.
Moreover, the judges found that the Kleins purposefully delivered enthusiastic mischief on the Bowman-Pryors by sharing their address and contact data on the web and encouraging Christians to assault the couple with despise mail and attempt to have their youngsters taken away.
