The New Jersey Supreme Court ruled on Monday in favor of a Catholic school that fired a teacher who had premarital sex.

Victoria Crisitello sued her employer almost a decade ago when she was fired after, as an unmarried art teacher and toddler room caregiver, she told the school principal she was pregnant in a meeting during which they discussed a promotion. She alleged discrimination in the firing.
