Federal Judge Says School Can’t Bar Student From Wearing A Pro-Life Shirt
NEW YORK, January 12, 2006 (

Judge Elfvin of the Western District of New York signed a permanent injunction ordering Fillmore Central High School located in Fillmore, New York to allow the student to wear his pro-life shirt to school.
The Thomas More Law Center, a national public interest law firm based in Ann Arbor, Michigan, represented the student. Richard Thompson, Chief Counsel of the Thomas More Law Center, stated: “This student courageously took a stand for his views and our constitution. The ruling is clear–public schools don’t have the right to silence the pro-life speech of students.”
