Judge Tells Constance McMillen’s Old High School: Pay The $81k Legal Bill

For the privilege of banning Constance McMillen from her high school prom and leaving his with only a civil rights lawsuit as recourse, the Itawamba County School District will have to pay more than $81k in legal fees, federal Judge Glen H. Davidson ruled today. (Though I thought Constance’s ACLU attorneys had settled for $35k in July?) Think about the awesome band they could’ve booked for prom instead.
