Legal arguments ended on Wednesday in the case, with a ruling expected before the end of the year.
A spokeperson for the Christian Institute, who are funding the McArthur family’s appeal, said: “Although costs have already exceeded £200,000, we are committed to defending religious liberty and free speech. The implications of the case go far beyond Ashers’ doors. If Ashers loses, everyone loses.”
