📅 18 Juli 2012 📍 Verenigde Staten

The US Justice Department sued Rutherford County, Tennessee, seeking to ensure that the Islamic Center of Murfreesboro could obtain an occupancy certificate for its new mosque. The complaint challenged unequal treatment under the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act after a state-court dispute had blocked the process. This entry dates the federal filing and request for relief, not the mosque’s eventual opening. It connects a congregation’s struggle for worship space with enforceable civil-rights protections.
