New York v. Cathedral Academy
Definition
- The Supreme Court decision in New York v. Cathedral Academy , 434 U.S. 125 (1977), invalidated a New York law adopted to reimburse parochial schools for state-mandated recordkeeping and testing services, finding it in violation of the First and Fourteenth Amendments because it required excessive state involvement in religious affairs. A three-judge U.S. district court had previously prohibited such reimbursement, and the Supreme Court had affirmed this decision in Levitt v. Committee for Public Education and Religious Liberty (1973). [Source: Encyclopedia of the First Amendment; New York v. Cathedral Academy (1977)]
