On Tuesday, Attorney Douglas Laycock characterizes his argument before the Supreme Court on behalf of an Arkansas prison inmate who says his Muslim beliefs that require him to grow a beard are being violated by prison rules that prevent beards. Mr. Laycock, a professor at the University of Virginia School of Law, is working with the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, which prevailed in the Hobby Lobby case in June. At left is Hannah Smith, a senior counsel with the Becket Fund. At right is Emily Hardman and Diana Verm, far right, both of the Becket Fund. (AP Photo/J. Scott Applewhite)
