RE: 4th Circuit rules (again) in favor of the Good News Club

[Greg Baylor]

CLS did not take a position in the Wiccan case.   Greg Baylor Gregory S.

Hamilton Paul R. Verkuil Chair in Public Law Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law Yeshiva University       This is the case's second trip to the 4th Circuit, and once again the court invalidates the Montgomery County School District's various machinations to prevent the Good News Club access on equal terms to the forum of take-home flyers given to the students.  http://pacer.ca4.uscourts.gov/opinion.pdf/051508.P.pdf
