Is a tribal hunt a religious exercise protected by the First Amendment?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Juvenile No. 1 (LWQ), 38 F.3d 470 (9th Cir. 1994):
Without deciding whether a tribal hunt is a religious exercise protected by the First Amendment, we reject the juveniles' argument. Deciding how to shape conditions of probation is essentially a task for the district court. "Absent compelling reason for appellate interference, the task of line-drawing in probation matters is best left to the discretion of the sentencing judge." United States v. Lowe, 654 F.2d 562, 568 (9th Cir.1981).
