Question presented

In view of this Court’s seminal holding recognizing the right of associational privacy in NAACP v. Alabama, and its teachings on the application of exacting scrutiny in Americans for Prosperity v. Bonta, should this Court not grant a church’s petition for writ of mandate to bar enforcement of a civil discovery order that does not serve an important government interest, is not narrowly tailored, and orders the church and its minister to disclose the names, email addresses, telephone numbers, emails, ceremonial attendance and donation records of the church’s 5,239 members and donors to three federal law enforcement agencies?
