Maybe It’s Not OK to Strip Search a 13-year-old Girl for Ibuprofen After All

January 31, 2008

Last September, I covered (along with seemingly every other legal blogger) Redding v. Safford USD #1, case no. 05-15759 (9th Cir. Sept. 21, 2007), in which the Ninth Circuit held that a school’s strip-search of a 13-year-old girl for Ibuprofen, for crying out loud, was constitutionally permissible.  Today, the Ninth orders rehearing en banc.

For a round-up of coverage of the original opinion, see my original post.
