(Worthy News) – The Supreme Court on Monday rejected an appeal from a Nevada church protesting Gov. Steve Sisolak’s coronavirus worship restrictions.
This is the second time the court has rejected the case, Calvary Chapel Dayton Valley v. Sisolak, since religious freedom advocates brought it forward this summer. The first time, the court decided not to give the church a temporary injunction against Sisolak’s orders, which limited the number of people present at a church service to 50 or fewer.
After the rejection, a 5-4 decision with Chief Justice John Roberts as the deciding vote, the church’s case became a rallying point for religious freedom advocates. Justice Samuel Alito, in his dissent, wrote that the court had failed the church by allowing Sisolak to restrict attendance to 50 people while at the same time opening casinos at 50% capacity.
