Before today's deadline the state gave Love in Action organizers three options. Change their mission, get a state mental health license or shut its doors.The group answered back by filing a federal lawsuit against the state. Love in Action attorney Nate Kellum says government has no right to regulate Love in Action. That's why he filed a complaint against the state in federal court.
"Its repugnant for a faith based institution, a Christian ministry to come under the regulation of the state," said Kellum.
Without a mental health license, state law prohibits the group from assisting more than one person with a diagnosed mental illness.
"Although Love in Action in its religious ministry has absolutely nothing to do with mental health services whatsoever," Kellum said.
