: Religion ClauseParents' Suit Against Christian High School Dismissed On Ecclesiastical Abstention Grounds
By Howard M. Friedman
In In re Prince of Peace School, (TX App., Sept. 23, 2020), a Texas state appellate court dismissed on ecclesiastical abstention grounds a suit by parents whose children were expelled from a Lutheran high school after the parents accused school personnel of harassing and bullying their children in connection with disciplinary issues. The court said in part:
Parents? claims are premised on allegations that Prince of Peace failed to hire qualified staff and appropriately supervise its staff?s interactions with Students, including by failing to report suspected abuse of Students by its staff. Defense of these claims rests on Prince of Peace?s internal and religiously-informed policies and code of conduct. Judicial resolution of the claims would thus require impermissible intrusion in Prince of Peace?s management of these matters.
