WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court has declined to hear an appeal from a German family seeking asylum in the United States because their home country does not allow home-schooling.

The justices rejected an appeal from Uwe (OO-vuh) and Hannelore Romeike (roh-MEYE-kee), who claim the German government is persecuting them because they want to raise their children in accordance with their Christian beliefs.
