In Manning v. Powers, 2017 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 213749
(CD CA, Dec. 13, 2017), a California federal district court granted a
preliminary injunction banning the government from enforcing two parole
conditions imposed on Sherman Manning, a Baptist minister who had served
25 years in prison for sexual assaults on teenage boys. One of the
challenged conditions prohibited Manning from entering places where
children congregate. Authorities had interpreted that to prohibit him
from entering any church. In invalidating that broad prohibition, the
court said in part,,,
Religion Clause: Parole Condition Barring Church Attendance Is Enjoined
