Federal judge dismisses teacher's challenge to Missouri Facebook Law

Federal Judge Jean Hamilton today dismissed Ladue teacher Christina Thomas' lawsuit against the social networking portion of Sen. Jane Cunningham's SB 54.

The decision came three days after Ms. Thomas asked for the dismissal, saying that the fix that was put in place by the legislature during its special session made the lawsuit moot.

Ms. Thomas, represented by the American Civil Liberties Union, has challenged the law, noting that it prevented her from contacting her own daughter via Facebook.
