Justices to take up Abercrombie & Fitch headscarf case

c. 2014 USA Today

WASHINGTON (RNS) The Supreme Court granted 11 new cases for review October 2, agreeing to rule on controversial topics such as religious freedom, child abuse, immigration, housing discrimination, congressional redistricting and campaign fund-raising by judicial candidates.

While they delayed any decision on same-sex marriage, the justices filled out their docket through January and into February with civil rights cases and others likely to command attention.
