Gonzales v. O Centro Espirita Beneficente Uniao do Vegetal, 04-1084
Grant of a preliminary injunction under the Religious Freedom Restoration Act in favor of plaintiff, a church, against the government involving the church's use for communion of a tea containing a hallucinogen regulated by the Controlled Substances Act, is affirmed where there was no error in a determination that the government failed to demonstrate, at the preliminary injunction stage, a compelling interest in barring the church's sacramental use of the tea.
