A federal appeals court has upheld a ruling that requires the removal of the large cross from Bayview Park on Bayou Texar. The city of Pensacola had appealed to the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals after a lower-court judge ruled that the cross in Bayview Park violated the First Amendment’s Establishment Clause. Four plaintiffs filed a lawsuit challenging the cross, saying its presence on public property was unconstitutional. The decision means the cross must be removed.
