In Chabad Chayil, Inc. v. School Board of Miami-Dade
County, Florida, (11th Cir., Sept. 8, 2022), the U.S. 11th
Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the district Court' dismissal of free
exercise, equal protection and due process claims brought by a Jewish organization
that ran a popular after-school Hebrew program for more than ten years using
public school classrooms. In 2019, after a complaint and investigation of
whether Chabad complied with the rules for use of school facilities without
paying a fee, the Miami-Dade County superintendent withdrew permission for
Chabad use of school classrooms. Chabad sued. The court held that plaintiff had
not shown the elements necessary to assert liability against either the school
board or the Inspector General's office that investigated complaints against
Chabad.
