US Court of Appeals upholdsruling that Roncalli had right to fire gay counselor

(95.3 MNC)
You may remember the case of guidance counselor Shelly Fitzgerald being fired by Roncalli High School in Indy for being in a same sex marriage in 2019.
Fitzgerald, who had worked at Roncalli for about 15 years before she was fired, sued the Archdiocese of Indianapolis for wrongful termination.
On Thursday the US Court of Appeals upheld a lower court ruling that the school did have the right to fire Fitzgerald.
The same court also backed a similar lower court ruling in July in the case of another Roncalli counselor, Lynn Starkey, who was also fired for being in a same-sex marriage.
