If ‘Stewart’ was not a real customer, does it affect Supreme Court ruling on wedding website? A Christian graphic artist in Colorado who the Supreme Court said can refuse to make wedding websites for gay couples pointed during her lawsuit to a request from a man named “Stewart” and his husband-to-be. The twist? Stewart says it never happened — and that he has been married for 15 years to a woman.The revelation has raised questions about how Lorie Smith’s case was allowed to proceed all the way to the nation’s highest court with such an apparent misrepresentation and whether the state of Colorado, which lost the case, has any legal recourse.It has served as another distraction at the end of a highly polarizing term for a Supreme Court marked by ethical questions and contentious rulings along ideological lines that rejected affirmative action in higher education and President Joe Biden’s $400 billion plan to cancel or reduce federal student loan debts.Here’s a look at the legal questions surrounding the mysterious would-be customer, “Stewart:”What role did the claim play...

He had a batting practice thrower move to the side and had me stand up with my posture, which freed up my body.“From there he was like, ‘you’re so gifted with your hands, just throw your hands at the ball. Where the ball is, throw your hands. You don’t have to go get it with your body. Your body will be...
