Ala. Judge Tosses Ten Commandments Suit (More on Roy Moore)
MONTGOMERY, Ala. -- A judge dismissed a lawsuit demanding that ousted Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore pay the $550,000 in attorneys' fees awarded to groups that sued to have his Ten Commandments monument removed from the state judicial building.

The order by Circuit Judge Tracy McCooey, which attorneys received Tuesday, said the 10 citizens who filed the suit had no legal standing to seek the recovery of spent state funds.

McCooey's order did not explain the dismissal, but plaintiffs' attorney David Gespass said the judge indicated that the governor is the only person who would have a right to recover such money.

Gespass said an appeal was likely.
