Six New York inmates who filed a lawsuit against the corrections department after its decision to lockdown prisons during the total solar eclipse on April 8 will be able to view it after a settlement.
The complaint described the solar eclipse as a religiously significant event and said it is "recognized by various religions as special events that warrant gathering, celebration, worship, and prayer."
A settlement allowing the inmates to view the event was reached with the state Department of Corrections on Thursday.
