Located in Montgomery, Alabama, the Foundation for Moral Law is a 501(c)(3) corporation operating as a non-profit organization with a mission to protect individual religious liberties rights contemplated in the United States Constitution.〔(''Alabama Secretary of State Corporation Records )〕 The Foundation participates in two main functions. First, personnel at the Foundation provide legal representation for people involved in situations concerning religious liberties.〔(''Foundation for Moral Law - About )〕 The Foundation also publishes amici curiae court briefs in advocating these rights.〔 A second pursuit of the Foundation is to hold seminars to educate lawyers and non-lawyers of what they perceive as a significant need to acknowledge God, in both law and government.〔 Pastor Phillip Ellen was the first President The Foundation for Moral Law in December 2002.〔(''Foundation for Moral Law - About )〕 Randy Stafford acted as Vice-President at that time, and Mel C. Glenn Sr., as Executive Director.〔 In November 2003, the board chose Rich Hobson as president of the Foundation, and Ellen became vice-president.〔 Later, Judge Roy Moore served as the President of the Foundation, and Hobson served as Executive Director.〔 In January 2013 it was announced Moore's wife, Kayla Moore, would serve as President of the Foundation.〔(''Foundation for Moral Law - Kayla Moore )〕〔(''Foundation for Moral Law - The Foundation for Moral Law Names Kayla Moore as President )〕 The organization says that it exists "to restore the knowledge of God in law and government and to acknowledge and defend the truth that man is endowed with rights, not by our fellow man, but by God!"〔 ==Legal cases== The Foundation has provided representation or acted as amicus curiae in the following cases: * Oliver v.
