Date Filed Document Text
July 19, 2013 Opinion or Order Filing 227 ORDER - The Court DENIES Mr. Lindh's Motion to Hold Defendant in Contempt, [dkt. 209], as the Court finds its earlier order was not unambiguous and required clarification. Within this order, the Court has clarified its earlier order with an unambiguous command, and it ORDERS the Warden to consider his current policy in light of that command and comply within thirty days. (See Order.) Signed by Judge Jane Magnus-Stinson on 7/19/2013. (RSF)
January 11, 2013 Opinion or Order Filing 200 FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW. Court finds that the Warden's policy prohibiting daily group prayer by Muslim inmates violates RFRA. The Warden will have 60 days in which to employ anew policy with respect to daily group prayer for Muslims. The Court is issuing today a permanent injunction to take effect in 60 days. Signed by Judge Jane Magnus-Stinson on 1/11/2013.(SMD)
February 3, 2012 Opinion or Order Filing 121 ORDER granting in part and denying in part 106 Motion for Summary Judgment; denying 112 Motion for Summary Judgment. For the foregoing reasons, the Court GRANTS in part and DENIES in part Mr. Lindhs Motion for Summary Judgment, [dkt. 106], and DENIES the Wardens Cross-Motion for Summary Judgment, [dkt. 112]. The Court finds as a matter of law that recitation of the five daily Muslim group prayers is a religious exercise rooted in Mr. Lindhs sincerely held religious beliefs. However, genuin e issues of material fact exist regarding whether the Warden has substantially burdened Mr. Lindhs exercise of religion. And the Warden has not satisfied his burden of showing either that the policy on group prayer is in furtherance of the compelling governmental interest of prison security, or that he has used the least restrictive means to further the governments interest. (SEE ORDER FOR MORE DETAILS.). Signed by Judge Jane Magnus-Stinson on 2/3/2012. (MRI) Modified on 2/3/2012 (MRI).
