The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday declined to review a Florida megachurch’s lawsuit challenging its designation as a hate group, sidestepping an opportunity to revisit the high bar that public figures face for proving defamation claims.
The court denied a petition by Coral Ridge Ministries Media Inc, which says it lost out on the ability to collect charitable donations from Amazon.com Inc customers after the Southern Poverty Law Center deemed the church to be a hate group because of its anti-LGBT views.
