Orthodox Jews back Muslim head scarfs at Supreme Court

2014-12-13 07:26:41| Apparel - Topix.net

Seven national Orthodox Jewish groups filed a Supreme Court brief in favor of a Muslim woman's right to wear a head scarf at work. The brief was filed by attorney Nathan Lewin of Lewin & Lewin, LLP of Washington D.C. for a case that is expected to be heard in February or March of next year on whether an applicant's failure to give explicit notice that she is a practicing Muslim who wears a head scarf at work allowed clothing retailer Abercrombie & Fitch to reject her application, saying it was in violation of the company dress code.
