SCOTUS rules Muslims can sue over no-fly list

A unanimous Supreme Court ruled on December 10 that Muslim men who were placed on the government’s no-fly list because they refused to serve as FBI informants can seek to hold federal agents financially liable.

The justices continued a string of decisions friendly to religious interests in holding that the men could sue the agents under the 1993 Religious Free­dom Restoration Act for what it calls “appropriate relief.”
