March 18 (UPI) -- The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday refused to hear a case in which a Hawaiian bed and breakfast refused to accommodate a lesbian couple, leaving in place a lower court's ruling in favor of the couple.
The proprietor of Aloha Bed & Breakfast, Phyllis Young, asked the Supreme Court to take up the case after the Hawaii Civil Rights Commission determined she discriminated against Diane Cervelli and Taeko Bufford in 2007 when she refuse to rent a room to them.
