Segraves v. California

The judge rejected this claim and found that California's anti-dogmatism policy gave sufficient accommodation to the views of Segraves.

Kelly Segraves is a father of three and cofounder of the Creation-Science Research Center in San Diego.

His three children, Kasey, Jason, and Kevin, attended a California public school, where part of the curriculum included the teachings of evolution.

In March 1981, after one week of testimony, presiding Judge Irving Perluss ruled that the teaching of evolution in public schools did not infringe upon the First Amendment rights of Segraves and his children.

"[2] The decision states that the anti-dogmatism policy should be made known to any organization or person who would receive the Science Framework for California Public Schools.
