Evans v. Bayer, Civil No. 08-61952 (S.D. Fla. filed Dec. 8, 2008).
Status: Motion to dismiss pending.


Katherine Evans was suspended for three days from Pembroke Pines Charter high school in November 2007 after she created a Facebook page that criticized one of her teachers as “the worst teacher she had ever had,” and solicited comments about the teacher. Evans’ site received three comments supporting the teacher, and she removed the page. A defense motion to dismiss, filed in March 2009, is pending.
