Capitol Hill Baptist Church Wins Injunction

“The Court determines that the Church is likely to succeed in proving that the District’s
actions violate RFRA. The District’s current restrictions substantially burden the Church’s
exercise of religion. More, the District has failed to offer evidence at this stage showing that it
has a compelling interest in preventing the Church from meeting outdoors with appropriate
precautions, or that this prohibition is the least-restrictive means to achieve its interest. The
Court will therefore grant the Church’s motion for injunctive relief.”
