Christian businessman on trial for 'Jesus' sign*

Accused of putting non-permitted religious messages on side of semi-trailer

--WWTI-TV, Watertown, New York

Act 2 of the ACTS II drama will be a trial.

On Thursday ACTS II Construction owner Dan Burritt pleaded not guilty to
violating town of Gouverneur sign laws. The case will now go to trial,
although no date has been set.

The company is named after a Bible passage.  Burritt is accused of
putting non-permitted religious messages on the side of a semi-trailer
along State Route 11.

He's being defended by the Alliance Defense Fund which takes special
interest in cases involving religious freedom.

The town claims that Burritt's signs amount to billboards. Burritt and
the ADF say there are numerous commercial signs that haven't drawn
similar enforcement action from the town.

Also, the ADF says, the Supreme Court has ruled that religious messages
posted on private property get even more constitutional protection than
commercial messages do.
