Excerpt:
A federal lawsuit was filed against the city of Kennesaw on Tuesday in relation to one resident's application to use a retail shopping center suite as a mosque, said Doug Dillard, the applicant's attorney.
Dillard said the lawsuit was filed as a precaution in case anyone challenges the City Council's Dec. 15 vote to approve the mosque application.
"If the opposition to the mosque filed a lawsuit and for some reason the vote that they took on December 15 was declared null and void, then all we've got to fall back on is their actions on Dec. 1," Dillard said.
