DENVER – A Colorado federal judge on Sept. 17 enjoined the federal government from enforcing the birth control mandate contained in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) against a mortgage company and its owners, who had argued that adhering to the mandate would violate their religious beliefs (W.L. Armstrong, et al. v. Kathleen Sebelius, et al., No. 13-563, D. Colo.; 2013 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 132841).
