![#SCOTUS Will Hear Masterpiece Cakeshop Religious Objection Case [VIDEO]](https://victorygirlsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/WeddingCakes_LW.jpg)
SCOTUS was busy today! Multiple cases were finalized and cases that will be heard this fall were announced. That includes Deanna’s post about SCOTUS keeping President Trump’s travel stay in place. Another case that has been slowly navigating the court docket will be heard next term.
The case, Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission, No. 16-111, started in 2012, when the baker, Jack Phillips, an owner of Masterpiece Cakeshop in Lakewood, Colo., refused to create a cake for the wedding reception of David Mullins and Charlie Craig, who were planning to marry in Massachusetts. The couple filed discrimination charges, and they won before a civil rights commission and in the courts.
Needless to say, the noise and misinformation surrounding this case have led to many a misunderstanding of what the case is about.
The baker, Jack Phillips, was approached to make a cake for David Mullins and Charlie Craig. Phillips refused to make a specialty cake, but did offer to sell them something already made. Quite frankly, that should’ve been the end of it. In my opinion Mullins and Craig should’ve just shrugged their shoulders and found another baker to make a cake. But they didn’t.
Instead the calls and the protests started within 30 minutes of the two leaving Phillips’ shop. Mullins and Craig filed a complaint with the Colorado Civil Rights Commission, the cake batter hit the fan on a world-wide scale, and the court battles started.
