Moore appealed Price's decision and kept the plaque up; ten days later the Supreme Court of Alabama issued a temporary stay against the ruling.

He added that the addition of the monument to the state judiciary building marked "the beginning of the restoration of the moral foundation of law to our people" and "a return to the knowledge of God in our land".<a href="#cite_note-glassroth-41">[41]</a> Additionally, Moore acknowledged an explicit theistic intent in placing the monument, agreeing that the monument "reflects the sovereignty of God over the affairs of men" and "acknowledge[s] God's overruling power over the affairs of men".<a href="#cite_note-appeal-49">[49]</a> However, in Moore's view this did not violate the doctrine of <a href="/wiki/Separation_of_church_and_state" title="Separation of church and state">separation of church and state</a>; as the presiding judge later summarized it, Moore argued "the Judeo-Christian God reigned over both the church and the state in this country, and that both owed allegiance to that God," although they must keep their affairs separate.<a href="#cite_note-glassroth-41">[41]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Judgment_and_appeal">Judgment and appeal</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Roy_Moore&action=edit&section=14" title="Edit section: Judgment and appeal">edit</a>]</div> On November 18, 2002, federal U.S. district judge <a href="/wiki/Myron_Herbert_Thompson" class="mw-redirect" title="Myron Herbert Thompson">Myron Herbert Thompson</a> issued his ruling declaring that the monument violated the <a href="/wiki/Establishment_Clause" title="Establishment Clause">Establishment Clause</a> of the <a href="/wiki/First_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution" title="First Amendment to the United States Constitution">First Amendment to the United States Constitution</a> and was thus unconstitutional: <blockquote>If all Chief Justice Moore had done were to emphasize the Ten Commandments' historical and educational importance ... or their importance as a model code for good citizenship ... this court would have a much different case before it. But the Chief Justice did not limit himself to this; he went far, far beyond. He installed a two-and-a-half ton monument in the most prominent place in a government building, managed with dollars from all state taxpayers, with the specific purpose and effect of establishing a permanent recognition of the 'sovereignty of God,' the Judeo-Christian God, over all citizens in this country, regardless of each taxpaying citizen's individual personal beliefs or lack thereof. To this, the Establishment Clause says no.<a href="#cite_note-glassroth-41">[41]</a></blockquote> Judge Thompson's decision mandated that Moore remove the monument from the state judicial building by January 3, 2003, but <a href="/wiki/Court_order" title="Court order">stayed</a> this order on December 23, 2002, after Moore appealed the decision to the <a href="/wiki/United_States_Court_of_Appeals_for_the_Eleventh_Circuit" title="United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit">United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit</a>.

Additionally, the court noted that different religious traditions assign different wordings of the Ten Commandments, meaning that "choosing which version of the Ten Commandments to display can have religious endorsement implications".<a href="#cite_note-appeal-49">[49]</a> In response to the appeals court's decision, Judge Thompson lifted his stay on August 5, 2003, requiring Moore to have the monument removed from public areas of the state judicial building by August 20.<a href="#cite_note-GlassrothFinInj-50">[50]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Protests_and_monument_removal">Protests and monument removal</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Roy_Moore&action=edit&section=15" title="Edit section: Protests and monument removal">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Moore_rally.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f0/Moore_rally.jpg/200px-Moore_rally.jpg" decoding="async" width="200" height="155" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f0/Moore_rally.jpg/300px-Moore_rally.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f0/Moore_rally.jpg/400px-Moore_rally.jpg 2x" data-file-width="408" data-file-height="317" /></a><figcaption>Rally before the Alabama State Capitol, August 16, 2003</figcaption></figure> On August 14, Moore announced his intention to defy Judge Thompson's order to have the monument removed. Two days later, large rallies in support of Moore and the Ten Commandments monument formed in front of the judicial building, featuring speakers such as <a href="/wiki/Alan_Keyes" title="Alan Keyes">Alan Keyes</a>, the Reverend <a href="/wiki/Jerry_Falwell" title="Jerry Falwell">Jerry Falwell</a>, and Moore himself. The crowd peaked at an estimated count of 4,000 that day,<a href="#cite_note-51">[51]</a> and anywhere from several hundred to over a thousand protesters remained through the end of August. The time limit for removal expired on August 20, with the monument still in place in the building's rotunda. As specified in Judge Thompson's order, the state of Alabama faced fines of $5,000 a day until the monument was removed. In response, the eight other members of the Alabama Supreme Court intervened on August 21, unanimously overruled Moore, and ordered the removal of the monument.<a href="#cite_note-52">[52]</a><a href="#cite_note-53">[53]</a> Moore said that Thompson, "fearing that I would not obey his order, decided to threaten other state officials and force them to remove the monument if I did not do so. A threat of heavy fines was his way of coercing obedience to that order," an action that Moore saw as a violation of the <a href="/wiki/Eleventh_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution" title="Eleventh Amendment to the United States Constitution">Eleventh Amendment to the United States Constitution</a>.<a href="#cite_note-Moore-2005-24">[24]</a> On August 27, the monument was moved to a non-public side room in the judicial building.<a href="#cite_note-54">[54]</a> The monument was not immediately removed from the building for several reasons – pending legal hearings, the monument's weight, worries that the monument could break through the floor if it was taken outside intact, and a desire to avoid confrontation with protesters massed outside the structure. The monument was not actually removed from the state judicial building until July 19, 2004.<a href="#cite_note-55">[55]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Removal_from_office">Removal from office</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Roy_Moore&action=edit&section=16" title="Edit section: Removal from office">edit</a>]</div> On August 22, 2003, two days after the deadline for the Ten Commandments monument's removal had passed, the Alabama Judicial Inquiry Commission (JIC) filed a complaint with the Alabama Court of the Judiciary (COJ), a panel of judges, lawyers and others appointed variously by judges, legal leaders, the governor and the lieutenant governor. The complaint effectively suspended Moore from the chief justice position pending a hearing by the COJ.<a href="#cite_note-56">[56]</a> The COJ ethics hearing was held on November 12, 2003. Moore repeated his earlier sentiment that "to acknowledge God cannot be a violation of the Canons of Ethics. Without God there can be no ethics." He also acknowledged that he would repeat his defiance of the court order if given another opportunity to do so, and that if he returned to office, "I certainly wouldn't leave [the monument] in a closet, shrouded from the public." In closing arguments, the assistant attorney general said Moore's defiance, left unchecked, "undercuts the entire workings of the judicial system ... What message does that send to the public, to other litigants? The message it sends is: If you don't like a court order, you don't have to follow it."<a href="#cite_note-57">[57]</a> The next day, the COJ issued a unanimous opinion ruling that "Chief Justice Moore has violated the Alabama Canons of Judicial Ethics as alleged by the JIC in its complaint." The COJ had several disciplinary options, including censure or suspension without pay, but because Moore's responses had indicated he would defy any similar court orders in the future, the COJ concluded that "under these circumstances, there is no penalty short of removal from office that would resolve this issue."<a href="#cite_note-58">[58]</a> Moore appealed the COJ's ruling to the Supreme Court of Alabama on December 10, 2003. A special panel of retired judges and justices was randomly selected to hear the case. Moore argued that the COJ did not consider the underlying legality of the federal courts' order that the monument be removed from the courthouse. The Alabama Supreme Court rejected this argument, saying that the COJ did not have the authority to overrule the federal courts, only to determine whether Moore violated the Canons of Judicial Ethics. Therefore, the Court reasoned, it was enough to show that a procedurally-valid order was in place against Moore. Moore also argued that the COJ had imposed a religious test on him to hold his office, and that the COJ's actions had violated his own rights under the <a href="/wiki/Free_Exercise_Clause" title="Free Exercise Clause">Free Exercise Clause</a> of the First Amendment.<a href="#cite_note-AlaSupremeCourt-59">[59]</a> The Supreme Court of Alabama rejected each of these arguments as well, and ruled on April 30, 2004, that the COJ had acted properly. The court also upheld the sanction of removal as appropriate.<a href="#cite_note-AlaSupremeCourt-59">[59]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Return_to_the_bench">Return to the bench</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Roy_Moore&action=edit&section=17" title="Edit section: Return to the bench">edit</a>]</div> Moore sought to return to the bench, and in the March 2012 Republican primary for chief justice of Alabama, Moore won the Republican nomination, defeating the sitting Chief Justice Chuck Malone (who had been appointed by Governor Bentley the previous year) and <a href="/wiki/Mobile_County,_Alabama" title="Mobile County, Alabama">Mobile County</a> circuit judge Charles Graddick.<a href="#cite_note-60">[60]</a><a href="#cite_note-Johnson-61">[61]</a> In the November 2012 general election, Moore defeated the Democratic nominee, <a href="/wiki/Jefferson_County,_Alabama" title="Jefferson County, Alabama">Jefferson County</a> circuit judge <a href="/wiki/Bob_Vance_(jurist)" title="Bob Vance (jurist)">Bob Vance</a>, and returned to the bench.<a href="#cite_note-62">[62]</a> Moore received 913,021 votes, to Vance's 850,816 votes.<a href="#cite_note-63">[63]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Views_on_same-sex_marriage">Views on same-sex marriage</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Roy_Moore&action=edit&section=18" title="Edit section: Views on same-sex marriage">edit</a>]</div> On January 28, 2015, the <a href="/wiki/Southern_Poverty_Law_Center" title="Southern Poverty Law Center">Southern Poverty Law Center</a> filed a judicial ethics complaint against Moore, stating that he had publicly commented on pending same-sex marriage cases and encouraged state officials and judges to ignore federal court rulings overturning bans on same-sex marriage.<a href="#cite_note-64">[64]</a><a href="#cite_note-65">[65]</a> Moore issued an order to probate judges and their employees on February 8, the day before a federal court ruling legalizing <a href="/wiki/Same-sex_marriage_in_Alabama" title="Same-sex marriage in Alabama">same-sex marriage in Alabama</a> was set to take effect, ordering them to disregard the ruling and enforce the state's ban under threat of legal action by the governor.<a href="#cite_note-66">[66]</a> On February 9, after the <a href="/wiki/United_States_Supreme_Court" class="mw-redirect" title="United States Supreme Court">United States Supreme Court</a> allowed the federal court ruling to take effect, probate judges in Birmingham, Montgomery, and Huntsville disobeyed Moore and issued marriage licenses to same-sex couples.<a href="#cite_note-67">[67]</a> On January 6, 2016, after the U.S. Supreme Court issued its opinion in <a href="/wiki/Obergefell_v._Hodges" title="Obergefell v.

Moore argued that his January 6 administrative order was mischaracterized by the JIC, despite the fact that the January 6 order stated "Until further decision by the Alabama Supreme Court, the existing orders of the Alabama Supreme Court that Alabama probate judges have a <a href="/wiki/Ministerial_duty" class="mw-redirect" title="Ministerial duty">ministerial duty</a> not to issue any marriage license contrary to the Alabama Sanctity of Marriage Amendment or the Alabama Marriage Protection Act remain in full force and effect."<a href="#cite_note-86">[86]</a><a href="#cite_note-87">[87]</a><a href="#cite_note-88">[88]</a><a href="#cite_note-89">[89]</a> At an August 2016 hearing before the Alabama Court of the Judiciary on the motions to dismiss and for summary judgment, Moore's attorneys continued to assert that Moore did not order probate judges to disobey the injunction issued by the U.S. District Court or the U.S. Supreme Court ruling on same-sex marriage.

These allegations are completely false."<a href="#cite_note-Wesson2-240">[240]</a><a href="#cite_note-241">[241]</a> Following the allegations, Moore appeared as a guest on <a href="/wiki/Sacha_Baron_Cohen" title="Sacha Baron Cohen">Sacha Baron Cohen</a>'s 2018 comedy series <a href="/wiki/Who_Is_America%3F" title="Who Is America?">Who Is America?</a> in which Baron Cohen, disguised as Israeli anti-terrorism expert Erran Morad, demonstrates new "technology", supposedly developed by the <a href="/wiki/Israeli_Army" class="mw-redirect" title="Israeli Army">Israeli Army</a> to identify pedophiles. Moore walked out of the interview after the device repeatedly indicated he was a pedophile.<a href="#cite_note-242">[242]</a> In September 2018, Moore filed a lawsuit against Baron Cohen, Showtime, and CBS Corporation seeking $95 million in damages for alleged fraud, defamation, and emotional distress. The lawsuit was filed in the <a href="/wiki/United_States_District_Court_for_the_District_of_Columbia" title="United States District Court for the District of Columbia">United States District Court for the District of Columbia</a> and argued that the consent agreement signed by Moore was "obtained through fraud" and was therefore "void and inoperative."<a href="#cite_note-243">[243]</a> In October 2018, Showtime moved for a change of venue to the <a href="/wiki/United_States_District_Court_for_the_Southern_District_of_New_York" title="United States District Court for the Southern District of New York">United States District Court for the Southern District of New York</a>.<a href="#cite_note-244">[244]</a> Despite the consent agreement specifying that any disputes be dealt with in a New York court, Moore's legal team opposed the change in venue, describing the move as "purely tactical, as they clearly perceive New York to a more favorable forum, where they will more than likely find a favorable left-leaning, pro-entertainment industry judge."<a href="#cite_note-Patten-245">[245]</a> Moore's legal team also contended that he had been "fraudulently induced" to appear on the show by two primary misrepresentations: Firstly, that Moore was under the impression that he was being flown to Washington D.C. to receive an award for his support of Israel; and, secondly, that he was told that the segment was being produced by an Israeli production company named Yerushalayim TV.<a href="#cite_note-Patten-245">[245]</a> In July 2021, Moore's lawsuit was dismissed by Southern District of New York Judge <a href="/wiki/John_P._Cronan" title="John P. Cronan">John Cronan</a>, who wrote that "Moore's claims are barred by the unambiguous contractual language, which precludes the very causes of action he now brings."<a href="#cite_note-246">[246]</a> This decision was upheld in July 2022, with the <a href="/wiki/United_States_Court_of_Appeals_for_the_Second_Circuit" title="United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit">appeals court</a> writing in its unsigned summary order that "Baron Cohen may have implied (despite his in character disclaimers of any belief that Judge Moore was a pedophile) that he believed Judge Moore's accusers, but he did not imply the existence of any independent factual basis for that belief besides the obviously farcical pedophile detecting 'device,' which no reasonable person could believe to be an actual, functioning piece of technology."<a href="#cite_note-247">[247]</a> Responding to the judgement, Moore told the <a href="/wiki/Associated_Press" title="Associated Press">Associated Press</a> that Baron Cohen's "pusillanimous and fraudulent conduct must be stopped," and that he will be making a further appeal.<a href="#cite_note-248">[248]</a> In August 2022, Moore was awarded $8.2 million by a jury from <a href="/wiki/Anniston,_Alabama" title="Anniston, Alabama">Anniston, Alabama</a>, in a defamation lawsuit against a Democratic-aligned super PAC over their use of the allegations in advertisements.
