: PrawfsAnother Law and Religion Cert Grant
By Dan Markel, Ethan Leib, Rick Garnett, Matt Bodie, Paul Horwitz , Steve Vladeck, and Orly Lobel
Via Howard Friedman's Religion Clause blog, this news:
The U.S. Supreme Court today granted certiorari in Christian Legal Society v. Martinez, (Docket No. 08-1371) (Order List). In the case, the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the right of University of California's Hastings College of Law to impose its policy against discrimination on the basis of religion and sexual orientation on a student religious group seeking formal recognition. (See prior posting.) Links to all the pleadings in the case are available from the Christian Legal Society website.
Thanks for letting us know, Howard, and for the links. Doubtless Rick, Howard, and I will have thoughts on this at different times.
