Judge upholds suit vs. polygamist church

Fifth District Judge James L. Shumate has decided to allow a complaint by Jason Miles Williams, a former member of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, to go forward in the court. Williams claims that the FLDS Church through its leader, Rulon Jeffs and his son Warren, coerced his wife Suzanne to leave his family because "she had no chance of salvation if she were to remain married" to Williams. He is seeking $10 million in damages based on his claim of alienation of affection and intentional infliction of emotional distress.
