- Jewish man denied franchise by Christian auto repair company takes fight to Fifth Circuit
A Jewish man was denied a franchise by a Christian auto repair company, prompting him to argue in the Fifth Circuit that Section 1981 of the 1866 civil rights law prohibits religious discrimination in contract decisions. The company claims requiring franchisees to be Christian aligns with its identity, while the plaintiff's attorney contends the law should extend to protect Jewish individuals.
