Law Offices of Arnold Laub

Nineteen students and alumni of the University of California Davis are suing the school over an incident last November in which campus police used pepper spray on non-violent protesters. The protesters were participating in an Occupy UC Davis protest as part of the nationwide Occupy movement.

The students and alumni bringing a suit against the University claim that campus police used excessive force in trying to subdue seated crowds of protesters, and in so doing violated the protesters first amendment rights. The ACLU of Northern California is representing the nineteen plaintiffs. 

University faculty have voted against a motion that would find University Chancellor Linda Katehi unfit to lead the school.
