Warner successfully represented an ex-spouse in enforcing a religious contract, a mahr (in the Islamic faith, a gift of money or property made by a man to the woman he marries), as part of the lower court’s divorce decree.
This case established a binding precedent for Michigan state trial courts in favor of enforcing religious contracts under Michigan law.
