Hearing set for Friday in free speech case involving Mormon temple

A federal judge will decide Friday whether to grant a Christian church’s request for a temporary restraining order so it can pass out fliers on sidewalks in front of a new Mormon temple in Brigham City. The Main Street Church of Brigham City and ACLU of Utah filed a civil lawsuit Tuesday seeking the order on a city ordinance they characterized as "Orwellian" in restricting free speech and other constitutional rights. The hearing is set for 10 a.m. before U.S. District Court Judge Dale Kimball.
