The Christian Legal Society (CLS) is a national organization of Christian lawyers and law students.
Students at the University of California's Hastings College of Law formed a chapter in 2004 at Hastings, and applied for school recognition.
The school's policy prohibits discrimination on religion and sexual orientation, among other things. CLS said it wouldn't comply, its application was rejected, and it sued based on the First Amendment. Today, it lost the case.
