By contrast, in Michigan Catholic Conference v. Burwell, the Sixth Circuit explained that “[t]he obligation to cover contraception will not be triggered by the act of self-certification—it already was triggered the enactment of the ACA.” 78 The court accordingly concluded that the “inability to ‘ restrain the behavior of a third party that conflicts with [one’s] religious beliefs, dot not impose a burden on the . . . exercise of religion.” 79 Similarly, in Wheaton College v. Burwell, the district court refused to enter an injunction, and Wheaton College appealed. 80 The Seventh Circuit denied Wheaton College’s motion for an injunction pending appeal and, just after issuing Hobby Lobby, the Court granted the College’s application for an injunction 36 (Ginsburg, J., dissenting).
