TL;DR

The US Supreme Court heard arguments in a civil rights dispute over balancing an individual's faith demands with a business' economic bottom line. The case involves a former postal worker who was disciplined for refusing to work on Sundays, which he considers to be the Sabbath. The worker is asking the court to decide if he was wrongfully fired by the US Postal Service after he refused to deliver Amazon packages on Sundays.

The court's ruling is expected by late June.
