POS 359--The Current Supreme Court Term
In class today, Thursday 4/8, we went over many of the cases that the two sides in Christian Legal Society are hoping to either have the Court "follow" or "distinguish". The cases were Widmar v. Vincent; Good News Club v. Milford; Santa Fe v. Doe; Healy v. James; Roberts v. Jaycees; Hurley v. Irish-American GLB Group; and Boy Scouts v. Dale. The assignment for Tuesday April 13 is to read the Seventh Circuit's decision in a very similar Christian Legal Society case: Christian Legal Society v. Walker. You can find the case by going to the Fogler Library site for Lexis/Nexis. Select the "Legal" tab, and then select the "Federal and State Cases" tab. In the dialogue box that appears go to "Citation Number" and enter 453 F.3d 853. Read both the majority and dissenting opinions.
