The U.S. Supreme Court said on Dec. 7 that it will hear a church-state case, Christian Legal Society v. Martinez.

The dispute is over the recognition of the Christian Legal Society’s chapter at the University of California, Hastings College of Law, according to an article on Law.com.

The case is about the state law school’s denial of official recognition to the Christian student group because it does not meet the school’s requirement that membership and leadership positions should be open to anyone.

The group leadership requires that members sign a statement of faith that vows devotion to Jesus Christ. It also stipulates that one must not have a “sexually immoral lifestyle.”

The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals sided with the school, so the society is taking the case to the higher court.
