As I understand the protocol from time of the lawsuit would be an elder or deacon giving an announcement for saints to give specifically to the lawsuit. What is not known and can be considered hearsay is elders would pledge how much their locality can give towards the lawsuit.

I rember several "discussions" i had with one particular elder of mine. He always tended to inflate church attendance as a kind of self promotion. I, however, would tend to discount church attendance, knowing the consequences of "taxation without representation."
