Cambridge Christian School, Inc. v. Florida High School Athletic Association, Inc.

Pending petition

Docket No. Op. Below Argument Opinion Vote Author Term
24-1261 11th Cir. TBD TBD TBD TBD TBD

Issues: (1) Whether Santa Fe Independent School District v. Doe compels a finding of government speech where two private Christian schools sought to engage in communal prayer over a loudspeaker before a football game organized by a state athletic association that otherwise permitted a wide array of private speech over the loudspeaker, and should therefore be overruled in light of this court’s later holdings; and (2) whether the endorsement factor of the government-speech doctrine revives the “endorsement test offshoot” of Lemon v. Kurtzman that “this Court long ago abandoned,” by providing a special veto for a private party’s religious speech on any government owned platform.
