Appeal Filed In Delaaware School Board Invocation Case

By Howard M. Friedman

ADVERTISEMENTS

Today's Delaware Online reports that an appeal has been filed with the Third Circuit in Doe v. Indian River School District. In the case, a Delaware federal district court upheld against an Establishment Clause attack the policy of the Indian River School Board to open its meetings with a prayer delivered by members of the school board on a rotating basis, or if the board member prefers, a moment of silence. The district court applied precedent relating to prayers opening sessions of legislative bodies. (See prior posting.)
