The Hill and New Republic have confirmed that the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/cuomo-to-partially-reopen-indoor-dining-in-nyc-for-valentines-day-if-positivity-rates-hold\/\" title=\"Cuomo To Partially Reopen Indoor Dining In NYC For Valentine\u2019s Day, \u2018If Positivity Rates Hold\u2019\">contact information<\/a> in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/boeing-agrees-to-2-5b-settlement-over-737-max-crashes\/\" title=\"Boeing agrees to .5B settlement over 737 MAX crashes\">court documents<\/a> and his IP address match those in the filing. However, Stewart says he was completely unaware that he was involved in the case until contacted by the latter outlet for comment.<\/p>\n<h3>Possible Request Made Under His Name<\/h3>\n<p>Although Stewart denies making the request, he does not rule out the possibility that someone else could have done so using his name. However, he remains uncertain about their motivations.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cI did not submit the request. I don\u2019t know who did. I don\u2019t know what their motivations would be,\u201d he told the Hill.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Despite the confusion surrounding his alleged involvement, Stewart takes the opportunity to express his support for the LGBTQ+ community and raises concerns about the case&#8217;s merits.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m just really disappointed in the ongoing and sustained attacks on the LGBTQ community in this country, and I\u2019m also disappointed and concerned about the lack of rigor that\u2019s been shown by the lawyers in this case,\u201d Stewart said. \u201cThere\u2019s some evidence there which is easily refutable and easily proven to be incorrect and has been in the case filings for the last five plus years. So it\u2019s concerning that that could make it all the way to the Supreme Court without anybody checking.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The Christian legal organization, Alliance Defending Freedom, which represented the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/scotus-to-decide-if-colorado-can-force-christian-website-designer-to-work-with-same-sex-couples\/\" title=\"SCOTUS to Decide if Colorado Can Force Christian Website Designer to Work with Same-Sex Couples\u00a0\">website designer<\/a> in the Supreme Court case, argues that whether or not it was Stewart who made the request is irrelevant to the case.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cWhether Lorie received a legitimate request or whether someone lied to her is irrelevant,\u201d ADF said in a statement. \u201cNo one should have to wait to be punished by the government to challenge an unjust law. Moreover, Lorie has received other wedding requests and has been unable to respond to any request because that put her at risk of punishment for violating Colorado\u2019s unjust law.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Last week, the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that Lorie Smith, the website designer, was not obligated to design a website for LGBT couples due to the protection of the First Amendment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The man involved in a Supreme Court ruling, referred to as &#8220;Stewart,&#8221; denies ever requesting a website for his same-sex marriage.
