ADRIAN, Mich. – Two Michigan prison chaplains can be sued for not allowing an inmate to participate in a Muslim religious event.
A federal appeals court Thursday affirmed a lower court ruling that said Derrick Maye's constitutional rights were violated in 2013 and 2014.
Maye says he was denied participation in Eid al-Fitr, which marks the end of Ramadan, a holy month in the Muslim faith. He was housed at prisons in Adrian and Jackson.
