Barnes-Wallace v. Boy Scouts of America is an on-going case involving the City of San Diego's relationship with the Boy Scouts of America. Plaintiffs Lori and Lynn Barnes-Wallace, a lesbian couple, joined Michael and Valerie Breen, an agnostic couple, in suing the City of San Diego and the Boy Scouts of America. Both couples are the parents of Scout-aged sons. The Boy Scouts of America have policies forbidding gays, atheists, and agnostics from participating in the organization. Since 1957, the City of San Diego has leased part of the city's Balboa Park to the Boy Scouts of America for the price of $1 per year. In 2000, the Breens and the Barnes-Wallaces, aided by the American Civil Liberties Union, sued the city, alleging that the lease was unconstitutional. In 2003, the United States District Court agreed and ruled in favor of Barnes-Wallace. The case was appealed to the Federal Court of Appeals who have now referred it to the California Supreme Court.
