The court affirms the decision in the case of Church of the Lukumi Babalu Aye, Inc. v. City of Hialeah, which was previously ruled in favor of the church by the district court in 1989 and subsequently upheld by the Eleventh Circuit in 1991. The U.S. Supreme Court granted certiorari in 1992, indicating the case's significant legal implications. Additionally, references are made to relevant precedents: Town v. State ex rel. Reno (1979), which was denied certiorari by the U.S. Supreme Court, and Department of Legal Affairs v. Jackson (1991). The decision is supported by the concurrence of Judges Downey, Stone, and Garrett.
