LITTLE ROCK, Ark. - An
Arkansas judge who was barred
from considering any execu-
tion-related cases after block-
ing the use of a lethal injection
drug and participating in an
anti-death penalty demonstra-
tion is suing the state’s highest
court, saying justices violated
his constitutional rights.
Pulaski County Circuit Judge
Wendell Griffen on Thursday
filed a lawsuit in federal court
against the seven members of
the state Supreme Court who
disqualified him days after he
was photographed laying on a
cot outside the governor’s man-
sion.
“Judge Griffen has been
materially harmed by the loss
of prestige, job satisfaction, and
job duties suffered as a result of

Order, by virtue of being barred
and disqualified, forever, from
hearing the most serious cases
a judge can hear in Arkansas,”
attorneys for the judge said in
the lawsuit.
Though photographs of
Griffen strapped to a cot out-
side the governor’s mansion
April 14 evoked images of a
condemned inmate awaiting
lethal injection, the judge has
said he was portraying Jesus
and participating in a Good Fri-
day vigil with his church. The
judge, who is also a Baptist pas-
tor, wore an anti-death penalty
button and was surrounded by
people holding signs opposing
executions.
Griffen’s lawsuit argues that
the disqualification violated
his constitutional rights to free
speech and exercise of religion,
and said the move broke a 2015
state religious objections law.
