Professor Drops Suit Against Students

Jessica Mathewson-Library Media Technical Asst.-jessica.mathewson@law.csuohio.edu | November 18, 2008 - 08:29

Back in May, we blogged about a professor who filed a defamation suit against some former students on claims they falsely accused him of racism. Professor Richard Peltz, of the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, has dropped his defamation suit against some former black students and UALR’s Black Law Association, after the Interim Dean of the law school released a letter stating that there wasn't any evidence of his being a racist. Professor Peltz sited his reason for suing as regaining of his reputation. This is quite the paradox...Professor Peltz is considered an authority on free speech, yet that is what may have in fact become limited through the suit.
