Courts - "High court asked to hear student online-speech case"

David L. Hudson Jr. writes at the First Amendment Center in an entry that begins:

A former Connecticut high school student punished for speech critical of school officials on her public Internet journal has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to hear her appeal. If the Supreme Court takes Avery Doninger’s case, it could offer much-needed guidance on when or whether school officials can punish students for online speech created off campus.
