Muslim claims Schneider trucking fired him for refusing to deliver Miller Lite.
Though the trucking firm and the beer are based in Wisconsin, the lawsuit was filed in Pennsylvania. The Philadephia Daily News explains the basic story, and some lawyer types offer commentary here at the Legal Blog Watch and at the Volokh Conspiracy.
As Volokh nicely explains, the two main questions will be how sincerely the trucker holds his religious beliefs, and how costly it would be for Schneider to accommodate those beliefs by, say, having him only deliver loads that do not contain alcohol or tobacco.
