Observer sues over school board press restraints
A letter from First Amendment attorney William Dixon of Ratley Dickason Sloan Akin Robb to Rio Rancho School Board president Harper threatens federal action for alleged unconstitutional policies restricting The Observer. It cites mandatory written questions, a censor system, teacher intimidation, and an organized boycott, urging immediate rescission at the March 22, 1999 meeting and potential 42 U.S.C. 1983 litigation.
