In reply to the discussion: Court orders defiant Kentucky clerk to issue same-sex marriage licenses in compliance with SCOTUS... [View all]jberryhill

I have no idea when her term expires. I'm sure she wasn't elected for life.
If there is someone else in the office who can do so, then I'd have to go back and check the specific order to determine whether or not some further procedural shenanigans would be needed. However, even if another order were needed, that can get done pretty quick. Ultimately, either the office is cleared out and they are all in jail, or someone issues a license.
I'm always surprised at how few people seem to grasp that people like her WANT to be martyrs for Jesus. Her marriages have been shitty, she's a nobody in a do-nothing go-nowhere job, and she has a choice between that and being a national celebrity, fund raising warhorse, and bestest friend of Jeezus.
She'll love it in jail.
