A U.S. District judge denied a motion Friday for a preliminary injunction to lift the suspension for 20 Arizona State University students who were arrested for trespassing during Pro-Palestine protests last week at the campus. The decision solely focused on whether a preliminary injunction, or temporary restraining order would be granted, it did not address the trespassing charges. The lawsuit was filed against the Arizona Board of Regents in federal court on Tuesday, accusing ASU of violating students' free speech rights and retaliating against students who attended the protest.
