Catholic school, gay man settle discrimination lawsuit: A food services applicant who lost a job offer from a Catholic high school when administrators learned he was in a same-sex marriage has received a settlement in the case, his lawyers announced Monday. The school had argued it was exempt from the state’s nondiscrimination laws because of its religious beliefs, notably the Catholic Church’s opposition to same-sex marriage. The confidential settlement means the school will not appeal the December court ruling, which legal specialists described as the first of its kind.
