Curran v. Mount Diablo Council of the Boy Scouts of America, 17 Cal.4th 670, 952 P.2d 218, 72 Cal.Rptr.2d 410 (1998), was a landmark case which upheld the right of a private organization in California to not allow new members on the basis of their sexual orientation.

Based on his sexual orientation, the Boy Scouts of America refused to allow Curran to hold a leadership position in their organization.

This case was ultimately decided in 1998, when the California Supreme Court ruled in favor of the Boy Scouts of America.

The court held that because the Boy Scouts of America was not considered a "business establishment" under the Unruh Civil Rights Act, it could not be required to change its membership policies so as to include homosexuals.
