Orthodox Jew petitions Supreme Court over prayer group targeting
An Orthodox Jewish homeowner in Ohio is appealing to the U.S. Supreme Court to revive a lawsuit against local authorities who allegedly targeted him for hosting a prayer gathering. The homeowner, Daniel Grand, claims city officials pressured him to obtain a permit for his small religious gathering, which they later characterized as requiring extensive land and property modifications. He alleges that this treatment was discriminatory and was aimed at suppressing his religious exercise, with accusations of harassment, threats, and obstruction. Grand's case seeks clarification on whether local governments can use zoning rules to hinder religious activities without violating constitutional rights.
