The Indiana attorney general's office is asking a federal judge to put on hold her order against Gov. Mike Pence's efforts to bar state agencies from helping Syrian refugees resettle in the state.

A judge ruled Monday in a civil lawsuit against Gov. Mike Pence, saying that Pence cannot deny state funds to Syrian refugees. The ACLU of Indiana is suing Pence on behalf of Exodus.

In a statement, Gov. Mike Pence says he will seek to immediately halt the effects of the judge's ruling and appeal the decision.

The judge dismissed the lawsuit Monday saying the caseworkers don't have the legal right to bring the claim against DCS.

Exodus Refugee Immigration is suing the state over Gov. Pence's policy to withhold money from agencies resettling Syrian refugees.

The state said its law banning people from taking pictures of their ballot - whether filled out or not - in the voting booth was to help prevent voter coercion and vote buying and selling. But federal judge Sarah Evans Barker says the state didn't show any evidence that those problems exist.
