We calculate the relativistic correlation function for a hybrid system of a photon and a Dirac particle. Such a system can be produced in decay of another spin-(1/2) fermion. We show that the relativistic correlation function, which depends on particle momenta, may have local extrema for fermion velocity of the order 0.5c. This influences the degree of violation of the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt inequality.
