Young v. United States District Court for the Northern District of Mississippi

Katie Young asks the Supreme Court to consider claims that a judicial officer showed hostility toward her religious beliefs. She also challenges the dismissal of her complaint and the Fifth Circuit's treatment of her appeal.

The case has not been scheduled for oral argument. The petition asks whether alleged religious hostility by a judicial officer can violate the First Amendment and due process.

The case concerns whether people alleging religious bias by a judicial officer can have their constitutional claims addressed. For example, a self-represented litigant who believes a judge's comments targeted religion could be affected.

No decision window is set. Watch for oral-argument scheduling or another action by the Court.
