MOREHEAD, Ky. — The Supreme Court ruled against the county clerk who refused to issue gay marriage licenses, leaving her with perhaps her toughest decision yet: Hand out licenses or risk potential fines or even possible jail time.

The moment of truth comes this morning when Rowan County Clerk Kim Davis opens her office doors. She appears to have run out of legal options after the high court denied her last-ditch appeal late Monday.

Davis has steadfastly refused to issue the licenses, saying her deeply held Christian beliefs don’t let her endorse gay marriages. Her attorney said she would pray overnight and understands the consequences either way.

“Wow, wow, wow, I can’t believe it, we might finally be able to get a license,” said April Miller, who’s been denied a gay marriage license twice. “I don’t know if she’ll stand her ground and deny licenses. But I guess we’ll find out.”

Davis stopped issuing all marriage licenses in the days after U.S. Supreme Court legalized gay marriage across the nation.

Two gay couples and two straight couples sued her, arguing that she must fulfill her duties as an elected official despite her personal religious faith. A federal judge ordered her to issue the licenses, and an appeals court upheld that decision. Her lawyers with the Liberty Counsel filed a last-ditch appeal to the Supreme Court on Friday, asking that they grant her “asylum for her conscience.”
