While community service was required for students to graduate, a Catholic high school was not liable for a student’s injuries sustained while she volunteered at an off-premise location that she chose, the Third District Court of Appeal said on Wednesday.

The case involves Michelle Neff, a then-sophomore at St. Brendan High School, a private Catholic school within the Archdiocese of Miami, who was injured while performing community service at the Good Hope Equestrian Training Center. Good Hope was included on a list of “pre-approved service opportunities” and Neff selected the horse training center for her service location, according to the Third District’s opinion.
