The Freedom From Religion Foundation said Friday it filed the complaint against Smith County Court-at-Law Judge Randall Rogers a day earlier with the Texas State Commission on Judicial Conduct in Austin.
On July 2, Rogers gave 21-year-old Josten Bundy 30 days to marry 19-year-old Elizabeth Jaynes or face 15 days in jail for pleading guilty to misdemeanor assault.
Bundy admitted punching Jaynes’ ex-boyfriend twice in the jaw for “saying disrespectful things” about her.
Rogers also ordered Bundy to scrawl a Bible verse 25 times daily.
Rogers didn’t return a message seeking comment. Bundy and Jaynes have since married.
