In the third lawsuit targeting Jack and his business, Masterpiece Cakeshop, the Colorado Court of Appeals affirmed a lower court’s ruling that punished Jack for not designing a custom cake celebrating a gender transition, requested by an activist attorney. Jack serves everyone. But he can’t create every message that he’s asked to. The activist attorney said he wanted to “test” Jack and “correct the errors of [Jack’s] ...
