📅 21 March 2014 📍 United States

Muslim Advocates and the Center for Constitutional Rights filed an appeal on behalf of Muslim plaintiffs whose surveillance lawsuit had been dismissed. They challenged the treatment of religious identity as a basis for suspicion. Taking the case to the Third Circuit kept the demand for equal protection alive after an adverse ruling and demonstrated the persistence required in institutional discrimination litigation.
