Supreme Court orders California to lift restrictions on at-home worship gatherings

U.S. Supreme Court is seen in Washington, U.S., November 27, 2017. | REUTERS/Yuri Gripas The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday issued an order blocking California from enforcing restrictions on in-home religious gatherings, including prayer meetings and Bible studies.  California’s rule that limits at-home religious gatherings to three households violates the First Amendment’s protection of religious exercise, the court ruled in a 5-4 unsigned order chiding the Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for its failure to grant an injunction.  “California treats some comparable secular activities more favorably than at-home religious exercise, permitting hair salons, retail stores, personal care services, movie theaters, private suites at sporting events and concerts, and indoor restaurants to bring together more than three households at a time,” the majority opinion stated.

Even at-home religious observance (for example, Bible study) were not allowed if those gathered came from more than three households. This particular restriction was taken to court by Pastor Jeremy Wong and others. Over the last year, the case wound a weary path to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, which returned a negative verdict against their request for injunctive relief pending a final Ninth Circuit decision.
