The U.S. Supreme court will not be hearing a case questioning the government's authority in limiting the size of religious gatherings.

A small church east of Reno won an appeals court ruling last month after a judge found Nevada's COVID-19 restrictions on churches were unconstitutional.

The Supreme Court Justices have not explained why they denied the case.
