A petition for certiorari (full text) was filed last week in Church of Scientology International v. Bixler, (cert. file 7/19/2022). In the case, a California state appellate court held that former Church of Scientology members were not bound by their agreement to submit all disputes with the Church to the Church's Religious Arbitration system when the dispute involves conduct that occurred after plaintiffs left the Church. (See prior posting.) Law & Crime reports on the filing.
