The U.S. Supreme Court today denied review in St. Augustine School v. Underly, (Docket No. 21-1295, certiorari denied 6/6/2022). (Order List). In the case, the U.S. 7th Circuit Court of Appeals sent back to the district court a suit challenging Wisconsin's refusal to provide bus transportation to students at St. Augustine School. The decision was based on a Wisconsin statute that requires school districts to bus private school students, but limits the obligation to only one private school affiliated with the same religious denomination or sponsoring group in each attendance district. The case has a complicated litigation history. (See prior posting.)
