It's unclear if Tuesday's decision in an Alabama case that says prayer is a protected right is case-specific or establishes judicial liturgy for the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on prayer. The answer could hinge on a Florida case in which a three-judge federal panel barred religious activity at school graduations. That Florida case is up for review as early as this fall. A ruling there could establish precedent for who can and cannot pray in the public school systems of the circuit.
