Student Marchers Sue School District

Four parents of students who were arrested for participating in a pro-immigrant march filed a class-action lawsuit Thursday accusing a school district and the city of violating their speech and assembly rights. The lawsuit was filed on behalf of 51 Round Rock High School students arrested in March and cited under the city’s curfew ordinance, said Jim Harrington, director of the Texas Civil Rights Project, a nonprofit representing the parents and students.  Click here and here for news stories on the suit.   For the complaint, see Download tellez_v.
