Hello John,
We are forever grateful for your help in supporting the Pacific Justice Institute’s pursuit to provide free legal care for parental rights, religious freedom, and civil liberties all around the country.
Over the past 20 years, Pacific Justice Institute has won some very significant court cases that have major implications for our mission of impacting lives.
In the middle of such a busy season, I thought it helpful to provide you with an overview of some of our most impactful cases.
This list does not cover all of our wins in court, and it does not even begin to include the countless successful outcomes we have obtained without ever having to go to court. But it provides an excellent snapshot of what we’ve been able to accomplish through God’s help and our faithful supporters.

A Woman’s Friend v. Becerra
This was a major PJI win in the U.S. Supreme Court. We represented pro-life pregnancy clinics challenging a California law mandating that they point women to abortion. This actually counted as a rare double victory, because in the same opinion, the Supreme Court disapproved of another dangerous Ninth Circuit decision in a case where PJI had earlier fought for the rights of counselors to offer therapy for youth with unwanted same-sex attraction.
Newdow v. Roberts
PJI successfully defended Revs. Rick Warren and Joseph Lowery, Jr. after they were named as defendants in a federal lawsuit brought by a notorious atheist trying to stop prayer at presidential inaugurations. We secured a favorable decision from the influential D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals. The three-judge panel included then-Circuit Judge Brett Kavanaugh.
In re A.S.
In this heart-rending case, we battled in a California dependency court for a mother whose teenage daughter was being held by the county and denied permission to return home. Without any allegations of parental abuse, the county sought to override the mother’s rights because she would not pretend her confused daughter had become a boy. We were able to convince the court to reunite the family.

The Pacific Justice Institute has represented hundreds of individuals in cases much like these three that we couldn’t engage on without your generous support. And for that, we say “thank you.”
Thank you for helping to defend religious liberty, parental rights, and civil liberties for those that don’t have any other options.
