Text of Petition for Writ of Certiorari by HHS Secretary in Hobby Lobby Contraceptive Mandate Case (PDF)
U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, via Becket Fund Sept. 29, 2013 45 pages, plus 206 pages of Appendices. Excerpt: "[T]he court of appeals' decision is incorrect and would transform RFRA from a shield for individuals and religious institutions into a sword used to deny employees of for-profit commercial enterprises the benefits and protections of generally applicable laws.... The majority found it unremarkable that, under its interpretation of RFRA, for-profit corporations could obtain religious exemptions that come 'at the expense of their employees.' ... This Court, by contrast, has cautioned that 'courts must take adequate account of the burdens a requested accommodation may impose on nonbeneficiaries.'" |
