In Lopez v. White, 2010 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 2701 (ND WV, Jan. 14, 2009), a West Virginia federal district court adopted a magistrate's recommendations (2009 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 123205, June 29, 2009) and rejected free exercise complaints by an inmate who claimed that he was segregated before All Saints' Day communion based on false disciplinary charges and that he was not allowed to participate in readings during Catholic chapel services.
