Benitez's Answer to Amicus Curiae Brief of Christian Medical and Dental Associations
Filed in the California Court of Appeal
Start Date:
06/21/2005

A physician's decision to selectively deny care due to a patient's sexual orientation violates a patient's civil rights and is therefore unlawful despite his or her religious convictions.
