WHO: ADF Litigation Staff Counsel David J. Hacker WHAT: Available for media interviews following hearing in Lopez v. Candaele WHEN: Wednesday, March 3, immediately after hearing, which begins at 9:30 a.m. PST WHERE: U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit, Richard H. Chambers U.S. Court of Appeals Building, 125 S. Grand Ave., Pasadena PASADENA, Calif. — Alliance Defense Fund Litigation Staff Counsel David J. Hacker will be available for media interviews following his arguments at a hearing Wednesday in a lawsuit spurred by a Los Angeles Community College District professor who called a Christian student a “fascist bastard,” accused him of offending others, and wrote “Ask God what your grade is” on the student’s speech evaluation after he spoke about his faith during a classroom speech. The hearing focuses on LACCD’s appeal of an injunction against a district policy that prohibited students from creating an “offensive” environment. The policy unconstitutionally restricts student speech on campus, but the district wants to keep enforcing the policy. Case Name: Lopez v.
