A federal appeals court has granted a Catholic group the right to display religious depictions along a privately owned 'prayer trail' representing the final day of Jesus' life.
Stations of the Cross stayed up until the township in 2021 persuaded a state judge to order removal. Catholic Healthcare, meanwhile, filed a lawsuit in federal court, invoking a law that protects religious groups in zoning matters.

The appeals court ordered a federal judge in Flint to ensure that the display is restored before Sept. 23. Get all the stories you need-to-know from the most powerful name in news delivered first thing every morning to your inbox
