Liberty Counsel, representing Liberty, said there would be an immediate appeal. "Liberty University has the right under the First Amendment and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act to uphold its sincere Christian religious beliefs and require its employees to do the same. Jonathan Zinski intentionally and deceptively set up Liberty University in an attempt to undermine its religious beliefs and mission. Title VII makes it abundantly clear that Liberty University does not violate the law when it discharges an employee who has publicly engaged in conduct inconsistent with its religious principles. Title VII exempts Liberty University from having to employ individuals who violate its religious beliefs and doctrinal positions," explained Mat Staver, Liberty Counsel chief. The legal team explained the issues: "In July 2023, Liberty University terminated Jonathan Zinski after he flagrantly and intentionally violated Liberty University's doctrinal statement and policies. When Zinski was hired, he acknowledged and affirmed the doctrinal statement, but then as soon as his 90-day probation period expired he revealed he had begun taking female hormones four months before he was hired, and that he planned to 'identify' as female."

That ruling from U.S. District Judge Kato Crews shows his bias, and that he's already decided the case, the plaintiffs charge.
