Kentucky clerk Kim Davis can get paid for jail time, break

GRAYSON, Ky. -- The county clerk in Kentucky who's now free from jail after refusing to issue same-sex marriage licenses will return to work Monday when it's unlikely she'll issue those licenses.

Officials said Kim Davis can collect a paycheck for the days she sat in jail and the week she's spending at home, resting and reading hundreds of letters from her fans.

People from across the nation including a man who traveled from San Francisco are still signing up to get married in Kentucky.

A San Francisco man just to get married in Kentucky after learning about Davis refusing to issue gay couples marriage licenses because of her Christian beliefs. "Um, disgust. Not because she was released but because she is being made a martyr for the cause, a cause that isn't a cause," Mark Shrayber said.

Davis thanked her supporters at a rally celebrating her release from Jail. "I love you all so very much. I just want to give God the glory. His people have rallied and you are a strong people," she said.

Davis spent six days behind bars for contempt and now as a condition of her release the judge ordered she shall not interfere in any way with the efforts of her deputy clerks to issue marriage licenses to all legally eligible couples.

Whether or not she complies remains to be seen with her attorney giving just one answer. "Kim Davis will not violate her conscious," he said.

According to Davis' lawyer she plans to return to work next Monday and so far at least one of her deputy clerks made it clear she may be the boss, but they will be obeying the judge's ruling.
