Philadelphia teachers hit with criminal contempt trials
Twenty seven striking Philadelphia teachers were cited for criminal contempt and ordered to trial next week after ignoring a judge's no strike order. Judge Jamieson scheduled trials Monday, with separate hearings sought for each teacher. Conviction could bring jail or fines. Some teachers returned to work as more pupils and staff resumed classes, amid ongoing walkout and negotiations.
