The city of Boston will pay more than $2 million to a Christian group for refusing to fly its Latin cross flag at City Hall after a unanimous Supreme Court ruling last term found that the city was in violation of First Amendment rights.
, all nine justices held that the city violated Shurtleff's free speech rights when they denied his request to fly the flag over his"religious viewpoint." Despite approving 284 consecutive applications to fly other flags temporarily from 2005 to 2017, including those of other countries, Boston denied the request due to it being a Christian flag.
The justices noted that Boston rejected Camp Constitution's request to fly the flag because it was concerned it would violate the Constitution's establishment clause, which prevents states from endorsing a religion.
