Message: From GoLocalProv by Carol Anne Costa, GoLocalProv MINDSETTER™: A Tennessee Magistrate made a ruling in an infant’s name mediation case that literally when reported by the Today Show, left I and my family gathered around the TV breathless. The now 7month old child is the son of Jaleesa Martin and Jawaan McCullough an unmarried Tennessee couple. The young parents could not agree on a last name for the baby, and that is what brought them to the courtroom of Child Support Magistrate, Lu Ann Ballew. In her ruling she not only changed the child’s last name to McCullough but proceeded to sua sponte change the child’s first name to Martin. She ruled his name to be, forthwith, Martin DeShawn McCullough, declaring it contains elements of both parents’ names. The Magistrate further clarified that, "The word Messiah is a title and it's a title that has only been earned by one person and that one person is Jesus Christ.” Where did she just go from the bench? Oh yes, she just collided with the First Amendment in a head on crash. http://www.golocalprov.comhttp://beta.golocalprov.com/carol-anne-costa-let-baby-messiah-keep-his-name
